About 915 E 1st St

You can feel the history in this special Elm Heights home immediately upon arrival. For decades, the same family lived, played, read books, and relaxed within these walls or on the porch perched above the neighborhood. Now ready for new owners, 915 E 1st St. is just minutes to city parks and IU and is an ideal location to build community. The main level offers 2 to 3 bedrooms, kitchen, tiled bathroom, living and dining room. There’s an old-world ambiance to the space, from hardwood floors to fixtures to arched doorways. Numerous windows welcome sunlight throughout the day. The long eat-in kitchen is reminiscent of a European café. The lower level has a finished den, second bathroom, and another bedroom, with a secret passageway back upstairs! This level would be great for guests or other private quarters.
