Now here’s a pretty painted lady wraparound porch that is an attention getter. So many colors. This historic Victorian had a “painstaking multi-year and multi-layer renovation.” It is considered to be an important Indy 19th-century home.
It’s on the market for $625,000, I know that is a lot for an old girl right? Someone will buy her I am sure. Today, we’re looking at her colorful wraparound porch and historical details inside.
MULTI-COLORED WRAPAROUND PORCH
Wow, I am loving all the colors and details.
Victorian houses dress themselves up with lots and lots of eye candy.
FOYER AND STAIRS
The house can boast about hand-carved woodwork and inlaid floors.
Built in 1865. That is 50+ years before the time of Downton Abbey days. If these walls could talk I bet this old Victorian would have gossip to tell about the ladies and gents that have lived here through the years.
LIVING ROOM
I don’t like the bats!
If you wonder about the golden-gilded ceiling, it is polychrome plaster decoration. No wonder the listing mentions the house was painstakingly renovated.
RENOVATED KITCHEN
The picture is the Girl with a Pearl Earring by 17th-century Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer and is also a 2003 movie of the same name starring Scarlett Johansson.
I adore exposed brick walls in a kitchen.
WINE ROOM
MASTER BED AND BATH
Nice large deck and patio in the back and that’s it for this pretty lady with a multi-colored wraparound porch.

Not in love with the interior of this home, but loving the gold gilded ceiling!
WOW this whole house is so unique! I would love to have a wrap around porch. Thanks for sharing another fantastic house. Only in my dreams!
I think any home you get your hands will end up looking beautiful.
Wow she sure is a pretty lady. Looks to be very well taken care off. I would love to keep her old world beauty and mix it up with some modern touches. You had me at wrap around porch of coarse.
Thank you Cyndi. I recall your friend in Napa that lives in a Victorian now that you mention it. I think Victorians are like a dollhouse for grownups.
I have a special place in my heart for Victorians…My best friend in Napa has lived in a historical Victorian for 35 years. It is so cool. I love going to visit. I’ll have to take some pics next time I’m there.
Thank you Carolann. I’ll try to keep an eye on her to see if she sells in a nanosecond.
Everything about this house is amazing. I love wraparound porches and this one is probably the most stunning I’ve seen in ages. The interior is truly majestic. I would buy this house in a nanosec if possible. Thanks for sharing her with us Sue. It was a visual eye candy experience!
