311 N Merrill Street Fortville, IN 46040

There's a lot more to this Fortville home than you'd ever guess from the street. Just a few blocks from downtown, its original character shows through in hardwood floors, arched openings and a stone fireplace, while a beautifully remodeled custom kitchen brings something completely different-custom cabinetry with soft close hinges, honed granite countertops, stainless steel appliances including a double oven and gas cooktop with a custom hood. The kitchen extends into the dining room with built in custom cabinetry and a window seat bench. The main-level bedroom suite includes a private bath with a large walk-in tile shower, while an additional half bath and state of the art washer and dryer keep everyday living convenient. Vinyl replacement windows are another practical plus. Downstairs adds a second living area with room to relax or entertain, while two additional flex spaces give you options for a home office, workout room, hobby space or overnight guests-one is currently being used as a bedroom. One of the best spaces in the house may be the covered porch. It's large enough for outdoor dining and a full seating area, making it a natural extension of the living space and a great spot to spend a summer evening. From there, step into the courtyard-style patio and backyard. With 2.5 baths, flexible living spaces, a fantastic covered porch and Main Street restaurants, coffee, shops and live music just blocks away, this home offers an unexpected amount of space and a lifestyle that's distinctly Fortville.
