Description

Butler Tarkington gem blending early 1900s character with thoughtful updates and modern conveniences. This spacious four-bedroom home features original hardwood floors, solid wood doors, and beautiful millwork throughout. Larger than it appears, the home spans four levels with both front and rear staircases, offering exceptional flexibility. The main level includes a generous entryway, oversized dining room, and welcoming living room. The updated kitchen boasts granite countertops, a walk-in pantry with new shelving (2024), and a new garbage disposal (2024). Upstairs, the ensuite primary features a walk-in shower (completely redone in 2024), a walk-in closet, and custom shelving (2024). A newly refurbished shared bathroom (2024) serves the additional bedrooms, and two upper loft spaces offer options for offices, playrooms, or guest rooms. Additional updates include a new sump pump (2025), fresh grass in the backyard (2025), and high-end front porch blinds (2023) that add comfort and privacy to the charming front porch. The full unfinished basement and walk-up attic offer abundant storage or future expansion opportunities. The fully fenced backyard includes an attached pergola and a highly sought-after detached two-car garage with additional storage. Enjoy an unbeatable location just steps from Tarkington Park, Dollar General, and Shortridge High School – plus, you’re just over a mile from Newfields Art Museum, which offers free membership to residents at this address!
