713 North Street
Lafayette, IN 47901

Welcome home to 713 North Street, where timeless character, remarkable craftsmanship, and downtown Lafayette living come together in a truly distinctive home. Built circa 1870 with Italianate influence, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence celebrates its history while offering thoughtful updates for today. From the moment you enter, the original architectural details take center stage. Beautiful hardwood floors flow through much of the home, complemented by substantial woodwork, tall baseboards, transom-style windows, and gorgeous French doors that connect the main living spaces. The enclosed front porch is surrounded by windows and creates an inviting spot to enjoy the neighborhood throughout the seasons. Inside, the living and dining areas showcase the home's craftsmanship, including an impressive brick fireplace flanked by original built-in cabinetry with leaded-glass doors. The updated kitchen provides a wonderful contrast of old and new with warm wood cabinetry, abundant storage, stainless steel appliances, stone counters, gas range, tile flooring, vaulted ceilings with skylight, and generous natural light. Make this your dining area or breakfast area. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms with hardwood floors and a spacious full bath featuring classic black-and-white tile, beadboard detailing, pedestal sink, and subway-tiled tub/shower surround. The character continues outdoors into a surprisingly private backyard retreat. Mature trees and established landscaping surround an expansive brick and paver patio, creating multiple spaces for outdoor dining, entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing beneath the shade. A storage building and covered off-street parking from the alley add valuable convenience. A unique outdoor shower provides that needed relief on hot summer days! The home is served by gas heat and central air, with a gas water heater approximately six months old and a roof reported at approximately 15 years old. There is no HOA. All of this is tucked into one of Lafayette's historic residential areas, just moments from downtown restaurants, shopping, entertainment, local events, and everything that makes downtown living so appealing. A special opportunity to own a piece of Lafayette history while making the next chapter entirely your own.
