A house like this comes on the market once every 20 years! It’s located on Alvord Boulevard, one of the most attractive and desirable streets in Evansville. The home blends historic charm with beautiful updates. Throughout the house, you’ll find gleaming original oak floors and tall ceilings. A large living room with a wood-burning fireplace opens to a gorgeous sunroom with a walk-out deck to the backyard. The dining room leads into a one-of-a-kind eat-in kitchen that blends brick and knotty pine with stainless steel appliances and floor-to-ceiling storage. The first floor also includes a full bath and guest room that can also work as a den. In the finished basement, a restored antique oak mantle surrounds a gas fireplace. The library bookcases bring a touch of Evansville history to the space; they were once used to house books at the original downtown Central Library. French doors and windows lead you to a work-from-home office with built-ins for storage and a filing cabinet. The basement also includes a full bath with a walk-in shower and a large laundry room with a folding table and drying space. Upstairs, you’ll find a huge primary bedroom with amazing light, a sitting space, and large walk-in closets that are unusual in an older home. There are also two more bedrooms with lots of closet space along with a large bathroom with two pedestal sinks. The upstairs has a separate cooling system to ensure your comfort on those hot Evansville nights. And there are not one, but two water heaters to make sure you never have to fight for a hot shower. In the backyard, there are two patios, plenty of shade, an amazing perennial garden, and a two-car garage. If that’s not all, here are the numbers: new main AC unit in 2018, new furnace in 2019, new sunroom windows in 2020, new front landscaping in 2022, new water heaters in 2023, new washer and dryer in 2023, and significant sewer work in 2023. All of this ensures that you can move right in and join other Evansville families who have filled this home with joy.
