Property Description

Welcome to 8424 E 56th Street, a beautifully updated historical home in Indianapolis' historic Fort Ben community, offering modern comfort, efficiency, and thoughtful upgrades throughout. Step inside to discover a fully updated kitchen with new counter tops, gas stove, and shaker cabinets. The kitchen is enhanced with a reverse osmosis water filter and upgraded garbage disposal, making daily living both healthier and more convenient. Beautiful hardwood floors are throughout the home on both floors. On the main level, windows allow for plenty of natural light, perfect for snuggling up with a book in the sunroom/den with its French doors or by the inviting electric fireplace. This room also has the addition of an half bath. Upstairs are three bedrooms and an updated bathroom with a beautifully tiled walk in shower. This home is equipped with a two-zone, high-efficiency HVAC system, humidifier, and a Halo air sanitizer-delivering comfort and clean air year-round. The tankless water heater and water softener add to the home's energy efficiency and ease of living. For peace of mind, all accessible plumbing has been updated. The basement features ample storage and an area for laundry and a separate entry. The garage is a true standout: fully insulated and climate controlled with its own heat pump, a full 100-amp electrical panel, and recent garage door maintenance with new springs in 2024. Perfect for projects, hobbies, or additional flex space. Additional upgrades include a new roof with copper gutters and downspouts, fresh exterior paint in 2025, and a security system for both the home and garage. This home blends quality craftsmanship, smart improvements, and long-term peace of mind-ready for its next owner to enjoy.
