Woodruff Place Homes for Sale - Indianapolis

In 1876 Woodruff Place was incorporated as a small town, complete with its own government. An English Cottage-style stucco town hall still sits at 735 East Drive as a reminder of this municipality that was in effect until 1962. In the 1950s, most of the residential homes were subdivided into apartments. In the late 1960s and early 1970s neighborhood revitalization began, transforming homes back to their original status. Rehabilitation of homes, esplanades and streets continued through 1980s and 90s. This area has been historically protected since 2001.

Most homes in Woodruff Place were built between 1898 and 1910. The architecture of these expansive residential homes encompasses a wide variety of styles including Queen Anne, Cottage, bungalow, Shingle, Arts and Crafts, Tudor Revival, Classic, American Foursquare and more.Modern-day Woodruff Place is an impressive, quiet, tight-knit community full of neighborhood pride and friendly residents. Splendid multi-tiered fountains -- three of which are original -- still greet residents at every intersection, as they did so many years ago. As in days past, impressive cast-iron statuettes, urns and landscaping still create interesting places to stop and admire the beauty of this long-standing area. Friends gather year-round for various events and are always looking to enhance the beauty and preserve the history of the district.This location also offers a quiet refuge with quick access to the city when desired.

Stop by on a warm day and gaze at one of the impressive fountains. Close your eyes under a large shady oak tree and you can almost hear the clip-clop of a horse pulling a carriage down the street past the handsome abodes. This is the beauty and charm of Woodruff Place.
