Description

A rare opportunity to own a home in a prime location in one of Indianapolis’s oldest and one-of-a kind historic neighborhoods. It has 1.3 acres with woods and was built in 1935. The home retains much of its original charming character and has many features. A gorgeous stairway, landing and 2nd floor balcony and bay window greet inside the large foyer. Ahead are double-doors which lead to the dining room with its full bay window. The massive living room has beautiful paneling and bookshelves surrounding the large fireplace. A lovely library has paneling, built-in bookshelves, and a bar. The spacious sunroom has walls of windows and a slate floor. The eat-in-kitchen adjoins two butler pantries (8×7 and 9×9) which adds space for a kitchen expansion. The woodwork throughout was masterfully crafted. Upstairs are five bedrooms, including the primary with a fireplace, gentlemen’s full bath, plus another full suite bathroom, dressing area, built-in vanity and closets. Two additional bedrooms share one full bath up, and the other two each have their own full bathrooms. The 3-car garage and basement with big windows add lots of storage space. All in a wonderful neighborhood adjacent to Woodstock Country Club. IMA/Newfields is steps away, and close to downtown Indy, Butler and Marion Universities. The house is in need of rehabbing and will make a wonderful place to call home. Golden Hill is an historic neighborhood overlooking the White River on the west side of Indianapolis’s Center Township. The district is bounded by Clifton Street, White River, 36th St. & Woodstock Country Club. It is noted for its homes designed by several of the city’s prominent architects. The estate homes reflect several styles of period revival architecture. It’s known for its community planning and remains an exclusive enclave. Golden Hill is on the National Register of Historic Places.
