The Sweet Spot on Swain by IU

Located in the heart of beautiful Bloomington, Indiana, this petite modern home is a hidden gem on a wooded, quiet cul-de-sac just 3 blocks to IU campus (Jacobs School of Music, Musical Arts Center, etc.) and walking distance to local establishments like Mother Bear's Pizza & Soma Coffee. It's also just minutes to downtown, Bryan Park, the new regional Hospital, and east side shopping and restaurants. Spotlessly clean and super convenient to all things IU and B-town!
