Description
Tucked into a charming Bloomington neighborhood, this adorable bungalow offers a warm, inviting feel with three bedrooms, a comfortable layout, and spaces that truly feel like home. A screened-in porch provides the perfect place to relax and enjoy the seasons, while the fenced yard offers privacy and room for pets, play, or outdoor entertaining. One of the home's most distinctive features is the detached garage, built using original Chicago & Alton (C&A) Railroad boxcar walls. The structure still displays authentic boxcar stamps, adding a unique layer of character that complements the home without overshadowing its everyday functionality. It's a rare detail that sets this property apart while still serving as a practical space for parking, storage, or a workshop. With its blend of classic bungalow charm, thoughtful features, and a subtle nod to local C&A Railroad history, this Bloomington home offers something truly special for buyers looking for character, comfort, and a home with a story.
