About this property

Special opportunity to own a piece of Bloomington history! Known as the “Anthony - Gros Louis House”, this historic limestone home at the corner of 1st & Hawthorne is in the heart of the Vinegar Hill Limestone Historic District (listed on the National Register of Historic Places). It is one of only 13 structures in the District classified as “Outstanding”, a classification limited to those structures deemed historically significant enough in themselves to deserve consideration for inclusion on the National Register. Developed in the heyday of Indiana's limestone industry from 1912-1935, the Vinegar Hill Limestone Historic District consists primarily of limestone homes built by and for limestone industry executives and artisans. The same carvers responsible for majestic buildings and beautiful churches across the US, built their own limestone homes here. The “Anthony – Gros Louis House” was built in 1928 by master limestone artisan Joseph Anthony. In the original part of the home, features such as the grand limestone fireplace mantel, beautiful wood doors and trim, built-ins, Norman windows, hardwood floors, light fixtures, and glass bathroom tile remain in pristine condition. The spacious living and dining rooms are open to each other and enjoy abundant natural light from 6 tall windows. The large kitchen was remodeled in the 1990s with reproduction period cabinets designed and crafted by Nancy Hillier. An addition at the back of the home adds a den/family room, 2 more bedrooms and a full bath, for a total of 4 bedrooms and 2 baths in 2,153 sq. ft. on the main level. There is a large recreation room and bathroom in the usable 1,450 sq. ft. basement. Out back is a serene private garden with a covered patio for entertaining and relaxation. This wonderful home has only had 3 owners, including the Gros Louis family who lived here until 1997. Only blocks from Indiana University campus! (Note: Property is also part of the City of Bloomington, Elm Heights Historic District. Both historic designations may impact exterior renovations.)
