Located in a desired school district, this house is just a two-minute walk to the bus line and a ten-minute drive to the IU campus, shopping mall and grocery store. With the YMCA just a stone's throw away, this house is in close proximity to the amenities of the city without the hubbub and commotion that usually come with it. Bloomington is a Tree City USA-designated city, and this neighborhood illustrates that perfectly with music of songbirds in the air in the morning, daytime and evening. Complete with a two-car garage and boasting a fenced-in yard with raised garden beds and a spacious garden shed, the house is great for planting flowers and garden vegetables. The back deck has been newly redone and painted and is perfect for enjoying quiet evenings.

The kitchen features Amish soft-close cabinets, stainless steel appliances (dishwasher and double-door fridge), a gas range with a double oven, a large farm sink and large pantry. A nice cast iron stairway leads way to the two bedrooms upstairs with lots of natural light and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom.

Located in south-central Indiana, Bloomington combines college-town energy with small-town appeal. As home to Indiana University's main campus with its 45,000 students, the city offers rich cultural and educational opportunities. The downtown area features both contemporary and historic buildings, anchored by the limestone Sample Gates that welcome visitors to IU's campus. Housing options include apartments near campus and residential neighborhoods throughout the city. Currently, renters can expect to pay around $1,116 for a one-bedroom apartment, with rental rates showing a modest annual increase of about 3.3%.
Bloomington's dedication to preserving green spaces earned its Tree City USA designation in 1984. The B-Line Trail connects downtown destinations, while Griffy Lake Nature Preserve and Lake Monroe provide hiking trails, boating, and fishing. Cultural attractions include performances at the restored 1922 Buskirk-Chumley Theater and exhibits at the Eskenazi Museum of Art.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
