ABOUT THIS HOME

Located in Fall Creek Township within HSE Schools, this home sits on a .46 acre lot with no HOA. The home was fully renovated in 2019 to 2020, with continued improvements over the years, including a primary bedroom and primary closet addition completed in 2024. The primary closet features a custom built in system. The kitchen was beautifully updated in 2019 with soft close cabinets and appliances. LVP flooring runs throughout the home with tile in the bathrooms. Major mechanical updates include a newer furnace, AC, and water heater (2018,) along replaced roof (2021.) The home sits entirely on a crawlspace with a new access door installed in 2024. Just off the main living space, the glassed-in patio is a favorite spot for slow, quiet mornings with coffee in hand or catching up with loved ones in the evening. Outdoor updates include a shed added in 2022, an asphalt driveway and concrete patio completed in 2024. The 25 foot deep garage provides space for a full size pickup truck. Just minutes from downtown Fortville and Flat Fork Park, this is a home that has been cared for with intention and pride. Nothing to do but move in and make it your own!
