1201 Mount Auburn Rd, Evansville, IN 47720

Welcome to Mt. Auburn, the hill above Evansville's westside that, like Arbor Hill near the Country Club, became an area known for summer homes in the late Victorian period and was noted for cool breezes in the days before air conditioning. High above the city, with views of St. Boniface's twin spires and the blue hills of Kentucky in the distance, rests this large brick craftsman cottage with a secluded back yard on just over 2 acres. Updated well with an opened floor plan between the spacious living and dining areas with parquet floors, the kitchen is freshly painted, the ceiling fans are updated, and the two main floor bedrooms each boast full bathrooms ensuite. The living area, which opens to a breezeway between the large two car garage with a third parking space to the side, is cozy in the winter with a woodburning stove. Upstairs you'll find a large landing with hardwood floors, and french doors that open into a seating area with closet that connects what currently is used as an upstairs master suite with large front bedroom with closet, additional hardwood floored room used as a closet and laundry area, and another full bathroom. The basement walks out to a patio, and is currently used as a month to month apartment. Complete with a second kitchen, original wood floors, a living room, bedroom, and bathroom, the basement can easily be a continued income earning rental or could be a great headquarters for Super Bowl Parties or Game of Thrones marathons or a music room - or all of the above. You decide. Also included in the sale and the acreage is the property at the NW corner of Buchanan Rd, addressed as 1151 Mt Auburn Rd, which provides extra parking for guests, room for that future hillside wooden ravine view party house you've always wanted to build, or the option to sell as a separate parcel; you have options here up on the hill. Welcome to Mt. Auburn!
