909 Riverside Drive South Bend, IN  46616

Fresh to the market for the first time in almost 40 years, here is your rare opportunity to own an early 20th-century home in the unique hybrid of Prairie Style and English Arts & Crafts. Designed by the noted architects Austin & Shambleau, Ennis Austin had it built for his own residence. Although a Riverside address, the home is tucked away on 3 lots on Dushane Ct.. The views are incredible! Not only can you enjoy the river to the north, the back yard is overlooking Leeper Park, which boasts the restored Studebaker fountain and a new playground. The lush yard is full of beautiful plantings with something flowering in all seasons. The home was built to best capture natural light and bring the nature in. View the special grounds from the enormous 31-ft. long living room, center of the home dining room, the wonderful sun porch with heated tile flooring, or the cozy den with another fireplace. The flow of this floorpan is perfect for family gatherings and entertaining. Imagine having dinner with a clear view of a blazing fire in the living room. Must see to appreciate the moldings, built-ins, and other special features that cannot be recreated in this day and age. The attic level could be finished off for a fun play space or studio. Very rare to have an attached garage in a home of this era, and the basement has an entrance to the exterior. Don’t delay to schedule your showing to see this stunning historical property!
