About 708 W 12th St

Discover the rare opportunity to own a piece of Bloomington’s history in the heart of the vibrant, historic Maple Heights neighborhood. This cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage, complete with a bonus room, sits on a spacious double lot, offering all the perks of downtown living with the potential for future expansion. The lot is nearly 4/10 of an acre. Whether you’re looking for a quiet retreat or dreaming big with ideas for an urban garden, farmstead, or even an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), this property has the flexibility to meet your needs. This 1900's home features a charming wrap-around porch, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and large rooms with double doors that create adaptable living spaces. A custom-built shed provides extra storage, and off-street parking for two cars adds convenience. Homes of this era often did not have closets in the bedrooms and were designed so that use of space changed as the family's needs changed. The seller has left the wardrobes in place for the next buyer. Often the smallest room would serve as a closet. There is potential for three bedrooms. Check out the "room inspirations" posted in each space to inspire your use of the room. The listing photos show the location of each room on the insert floorplan (location identified with red dot). Recent updates include a new roof, water heater, cellar sump pump, and fresh exterior paint, making it move-in ready. Located on Bloomington's upper west side, Maple Heights is a peaceful neighborhood just blocks from Upland Brewing, the B-Line Trail, The Trades District, Indiana University, and the Downtown Square. Easy access to the rest of town makes this a perfect location for anyone who values convenience and community. If you're seeking a unique blend of history, comfort, and potential in a prime college-town setting, this could be your dream home!
