About this House

You get new! You get new! You get new! Even Oprah could not give you as much "new" as this sparkling 4 bedroom, 3 full bath home can! I'd say this house was taken down to the studs, but even some of the studs are new too! Roof - new. Siding - new. Windows - new. Kitchen - all new including appliances and beautiful quartz countertops. New LPV flooring throughout the house with newly carpeted bedrooms. You get the picture. The upper level of this centrally located home consists of 3 bedrooms, including the updated primary suite, thoughtfully-designed kitchen, and large living space. Off the kitchen is, of course, a brand new deck perfect for relaxing or grilling your next meal as you overlook the large, fully-fenced backyard. The lower level is where you will enjoy a huge family room, full bathroom, laundry, bedroom, and a bonus room you could use as an office, craft room, or maybe a fifth bedroom (no egress). About the only thing not new in this house is the HVAC, which is only a few years old. This home is in Unit 5 (Grove Elementary) and directly across the street from Shepard Park. The freshly painted house helps to accentuate the great natural lighting. It just doesn't get any better! Where are you going to get nearly 2200 square feet of virtually new construction?!? Here, that's where. This is one you will NOT want to miss. You will be kicking yourself if you don't check it out!

    "overall it's a great place to raise a family, but, just like anywhere, check the crime maps and make sure your kids know to stay away from certain parts of town. Downtown Bloomington is where the highest concentration of crime happens. Mostly the college kids are targeted, but just be a little more cautious around there."
