About this home

This little cottage is as cute as can be. Perfect for sitting on the front porch with a glass of iced tea and enjoying the country quiet. .. yet only 6 miles from downtown Bloomington and right up the street from Lake Monroe. This home has potentially two bedrooms or it can be one bedroom with a den or office. Beautiful original hardwood floors with a cozy eat-in kitchen and a laundry room in back. New bathroom, roof and septic with all new wiring and plumbing. Not only does this home have a fully fenced in backyard but also has a side yard that could be used to build a pole barn. Only a quick trip to see the IU basketball games or a hop, skip and a jump to the lake for an afternoon of boating. Great one level living near it all.

AREA 3

Suburban Residential District

The character of the Suburban Residential (SR) District is defined as that which is primarily intended for existing, possibly nonconforming, recorded single family residential subdivisions and lots of record. Its purposes are to accommodate existing, substandard subdivision developments and lots, to permit the build-out of single family residential uses in those developments and lots, to encourage the development of sanitary sewer systems for the existing development in the Lake Lemon area, to discourage the development of nonresidential uses, to protect environmentally sensitive areas, such as floodplain, karst, and steep slopes, and to maintain the character of the surrounding neighborhood. Therefore, the number of uses permitted in the SR District is limited. Some uses are conditionally permitted. The conditions placed on these uses are to insure their compatibility with the residential uses. The need for expanding this district beyond the areas designated on the Official Zone Maps on the date of the adoption of the zoning regulations is not anticipated or encouraged.
