NEW PRICE! and a fresh opportunity to own a wonderful piece of Indianapolis history in the charming Little Flower neighborhood, just minutes from downtown. Built in 1927, 1509 Bosart is a delightful reminder of an era when homes were built with an eye toward permanence, craftsmanship and individuality. With two bedrooms, one bath, a mostly finished basement, fully fenced backyard and one-car garage, it checks plenty of practical boxes. But the real appeal of this house is found in the details, the kind that make you slow down, look around and appreciate what nearly a century of history has given us. In the kitchen, where the original solid wood cabinetry has survived generations of changing tastes and trends. There's something enormously appealing about a kitchen that hasn't surrendered its personality to the latest design fad. These cabinets have character, substance and a warmth that no amount of flat-packed furniture can reproduce. And then there's the breakfast nook, a particularly irresistible little corner that feels like your inner child's favorite hiding place. Imagine a quiet Sunday morning, a cup of coffee, the newspaper, perhaps a dog snoozing at your feet, and absolutely nowhere you need to be. It's the sort of space that makes an ordinary morning feel like a small luxury. Of course, we can appreciate the virtues of modern living, too, and the lovely granite countertops are proof that old and new can coexist quite happily. It's the sort of space that makes an ordinary morning feel like a small luxury.New gutters and downspouts are already in place, and the basement has been waterproofed and equipped with a sump pump. That mostly finished lower level gives you something every homeowner appreciates: additional space and the flexibility to use it according to your own needs. Nearly a century after it was built, this Little Flower classic continues to make a persuasive argument for the pleasures of living in a house with a little history and real personality
