Property Description
The Wedding Cake House, also known as the Kemper House, stands as a remarkable blend of Greek Revival and Italianate architecture. Not too big, not too small-perfectly sized to fit refined living in the heart of the city. Exceptional ornamentation, impressive ceiling height, and generously sized windows create a light-filled, timeless ambiance. Rich history and a primarily single-level floor plan add to its prize-worthy appeal. An impressive interior scale is complemented by ornate plaster detailing throughout, making this home one of a kind. The second-floor suite is especially spacious! New carpet and fresh paint throughout, including a full exterior paint job, too! A notable piece of history: Eli Lilly recognized the home's importance early on, purchasing and renovating it in 1962 for donation to the Episcopal Diocese. In 1977, it was donated to Indiana Landmarks, solidifying its pedigree as one of the city's most distinctive historic homes. Location, location, location: absolutely at the epicenter of everything happening in our vibrant Downtown, with easy access to the interstate for easy travel! Ideal for history buffs, empty nesters, and anyone seeking a chic urban domicile, this home invites you to live amid culture, comfort, and timeless style.
