There's just something about living in Meridian-Kessler - the charm of an established neighborhood, the convenience of being right in the city, and in this home, a whole lot of great space and character too. The front enclosed entry is the perfect welcome and one of those spaces you'll find yourself using all the time - morning coffee, a good book, or even a sunny little home office. Step inside and you'll find original hardwoods, tall ceilings, and genuinely generous living spaces. The large living room has a gas fireplace and original built-ins, and flows right into a bright dining room with plenty of space for a big table, then into the updated kitchen. Upstairs are three bedrooms and updated baths, plus a private balcony off the landing that might just become your favorite spot for an evening cocktail or a little stargazing. The lower level adds even more, with a finished flex room that could easily be an office, workout space, or guest room, a full bathroom, and plenty of storage. Out back, a large deck and fenced yard give you even more room to enjoy, and a small garage/shed handles bikes, tools, and all the extras. You even have off-street parking out front - something that feels like a real win in this part of town. And the location is hard to beat. You're in Meridian-Kessler Zone 2, walkable to Blue Mind Coffee and the College Avenue Library, close to the Monon Trail and Red Line, and just minutes from Downtown. It's one of those great Midtown pockets where you can feel part of a neighborhood and still have the best of the city right at your fingertips.
