Set on a tree-lined stretch of Guilford in the heart of Meridian-Kessler, this 1925 bungalow offers the neighborhood's best qualities without the project list. Three bedrooms and two full updated baths sit on one level, anchored by a living room with fireplace and a dining space that opens into an updated kitchen with quartz counters, stainless appliances, breakfast bar, and pantry. Replacement windows carry light wall to wall, and the original bungalow proportions stay intact: generous rooms, a floor plan that lives open without feeling gutted. A waterproofed basement adds two genuinely usable finished rooms: a family room and a bonus space that flexes to home office, gym, or guest quarters, plus laundry and storage. Outside, a fully fenced privacy yard and established landscaping deliver the rare combination of in-town convenience and a real backyard complete with a beautiful deck. The front deck with pergola is the kind of porch this street was built for. The Monon Trail sits a few blocks east: ride north to Broad Ripple and the farmers market, or south toward the Cultural Trail and downtown. The 54th and College corridor is around the corner, with coffee, the Red Key Tavern, SoBro restaurants, and groceries all within minutes. Butler University, Newfields, the Indianapolis Art Center, and the Central Canal are minutes away, and access to Keystone, Fall Creek Parkway. What is unusual is finding that address attached to a home already updated where it counts, dry and finished below grade, and ready for a buyer who would rather spend the first weekend on the deck than in a contractor's queue.
