Home Preview – Meridian-Kessler Home & Garden Tour

Save the date for The Meridian-Kessler Home & Garden Tour which runs Saturday and Sunday, June 18 and 19.   This longest running and largest tour of vintage homes in Indiana will showcase a variety of styles and ideas for home renovation, landscape and design.  Should you be inspired and like to partner with a design professional, you may visit the IDC’s featured and directory of designers page and other website sections for showroom, product, contractor and artisan listings.

The Meridian-Kessler Neighborhood Association has offered the IDC a sneak preview of one of the homes featured on the tour.  Allow us to introduce you to the home of Jim Morris and Bob Wood located at 533 East 57th Street.

About the Home: From the exterior, this home looks like a traditional Tudor. Inside, however, it’s completely contemporary thanks to a total renovation completed two years ago. When Jim Morris bought the home in 2008, it had been a neglected rental for some time. Morris acted as his own general contractor and transformed the home during a six-month-long project. He added a second story and opened up the floor plan. Morris, who had previously lived in homes with traditional decor, indulged his desire for a more modern interior, decorating with color and pattern.
