Just moments from IU and the center of Bloomington sits this idyllic nearly 8-acre acre parcel. The largely wooded lot is super private, yet has a large clearing surrounding the updated ranch home. So many wonderful updates including a delightful new kitchen handmade by Stoll Brothers Custom Kitchens, one of the finest local Amish cabinet makers. The new hardwood oak floors create both warmth and light to the main living areas of the home. The spacious open floor plan allows plenty of space for cooking, entertaining and dining. There are 2 secondary bedrooms as well as a spacious primary bedroom with a large ensuite and walk-closet. Of the entrance to the 3-car garage is a very functional utility room which includes laundry and a 1/2 bath. But wait...there's also large semi finished basement which awaits your hobbies and projects or perhaps room to add a 4th bedroom. Property includes multiple perennial pollinator garden plots and a perennial shade garden that features native ferns, sedges, and wild ginger. There are established fruiting shrubs to enjoy, and the garden beds in the native limestone terraces have organically amended soil for growing annual vegetables or for low-maintenance perennial plants.
