Bring your vision to Prospect Hill. Located in one of Bloomington's most desirable west-side neighborhoods, 618 Howe Street presents a rare opportunity for a builder, investor, or buyer with the vision to take on a major reconstruction project. Offered at $100,000 and sold AS IS, the property is currently in shell condition, with significant demolition and little framing completed and no roof in place. This is not a typical renovation—it will require substantial reconstruction. But for the right buyer, the opportunity is compelling. A City of Bloomington Building Permit is already in place and transfers with the property to the new owner. The permit is valid through July 2, 2028. The permitted project includes engineered plans prepared by structural engineer Kevin Potter for an extensive renovation and addition that essentially reimagines and rebuilds the old existing home. A buyer can explore completing the existing permitted plans or pursue a different vision for the property, subject to applicable City and Historic District requirements. With R3 zoning, approximately 0.0895 acres, and a coveted Prospect Hill location, there is significant potential for someone who knows how to turn a challenging property into something exceptional. This is an opportunity to step in with much of the planning and permitting groundwork already completed and finish the project—or take it in an entirely new direction (thought a new permit would need to be applied for). Property is being sold strictly AS IS. Buyer to independently verify all zoning, Historic District requirements, permit details, plans, development potential, existing conditions, and other information important to the buyer.

Built in 2009 in the heart of the Greater Prospect Hill Historic District, this bright and spacious home combines modern construction with the character and convenience of one of Bloomington’s most popular neighborhoods. The open floor plan is filled with natural light and features 10' ceilings, hardwood floors, granite countertops and a wide spindled staircase, creating a warm and inviting space for both everyday living and entertaining. The versatile layout includes 3 bedrooms and 3½ baths, with one of the two ensuite bedrooms conveniently located on the main level. Outdoor living is easy with two covered porches, an upstairs balcony and a fenced patio area—enjoy your morning coffee or a good book on the balcony, relax on the porch and watch the neighborhood go by, or gather with friends on the patio. The nearly full-size unfinished basement, accessed from the exterior, provides abundant storage and excellent space for a workshop or hobbies. Recent improvements include new exterior window trim and retaining wall, along with newer major components: 9-year-old roof, 6-year-old HVAC with humidifier and 1-year-old water heater. The seller installed a SolarEdge solar system that has consistently generated approximately 4,800 kWh annually, historically reducing electricity costs by an estimated $700–$900 per year. Fiber internet is also available. Best of all, enjoy the convenience of being close to downtown Bloomington, Indiana University, the B-Line Trail, Farmers’ Market, local restaurants, shops and entertainment—whether it’s time on the trail, dinner downtown or a quick trip to campus. With three bedroom suites, a main-level bedroom and a flexible floor plan, this home is well suited for owner occupancy, guests, multi-generational living or rental use. For an owner-occupant who qualifies for the Homestead Deduction, property taxes are estimated to be approximately half of the current amount.
