716 W Ralston Drive, Bloomington, IN 47403

This is your chance to build the urban homestead of your dreams! This charming turnkey bungalow on a full acre sits on a quiet residential street with super quick access to Rogers, Country Club, and 69. While in town just a few blocks from the B-line and a mile to Switchyard Park, the location is the perfect mix of accessible and peaceful.

In 10 minutes, you can be downtown, shopping on the east side or west side of town. It looks cozy from the outside, but the open concept floor plan and generous natural light make this sweet home feel spacious and bright. You’ll appreciate the warm open feel of the living room and eat-in kitchen that take advantage of natural light and the beautiful, warm hardwoods throughout the main level.

The kitchen is a great blend of classic and modern with white quartz countertops, moody blue cabinets, and a wall of extra cabinets for plenty of storage. The screened side porch has beautiful morning light and makes a great outdoor home office or yoga space in warmer months.

The bathroom is practical and updated with subway tile and modern fixtures as well as a closet for storage. The upstairs is a great third bedroom, office, bonus space, or combination. There are ethernet cables that run from the basement to the upstairs closet, and it is temperature controlled with its own HVAC vent, making it another option for quiet office space upstairs if you wish or could be converted to a second bathroom.

The backyard is fenced with a double wide gate on the side, the green space is plentiful and lined with mature trees. Enjoy the custom fire pit space, build the garden of your dreams, get a few chickens (current chickens not included!) and enjoy the blank canvas of this huge, beautiful yard.

The full basement is clean and bright and offers amazing storage or play space for kids. This sweet old house has had lots of updates: HVAC, electrical, walls, ceilings, appliances and windows are less than 8 years old, roof and gutters are less than 10 years old. It isn’t hard to imagine yourself in this quaint home. If you’ve been waiting for an acre in town, quiet neighbors, and a short drive to everything you need, this is an absolute treasure.
