This
year the HGTV Urban Oasis Giveaway is in Indianapolis and we are SO excited!
Below is everything you need to know about this Cozy Cottage.
Location
The
house can be found in the heart of Broad Ripple, a favorite spot in
Indianapolis, full of great culinary eats and mom-and-pop shops you do not want
to miss. The city also just recently announced it will be investing $6 million
into improvements to Broad Ripple for lighting, sidewalks, greenery, the
community center, and more. Already a perfect location with access to the Monon
walking trail, many great restaurants, and stores, Broad Ripple will only be
getting better for years to come.
Background
Information
This
cute cottage is located on Evanston and Broad Ripple Ave. It is a 3 bedroom 2
and a half bath with a detached garage and roomy backyard space. It has a
forest green exterior with a cozy inviting porch as well as beautiful
landscaping. The landscaping is full of greenery and butterfly plants that once
developed, will attract many monarchs to the yard. The house will come fully
furnished and is valued at over $600,000. It was designed by celebrity designer
Brian Patrick Flynn. Flynn has been designing HGTV Urban Oasis since 2016 and
continues to blow us away with his unique designs.
Kitchen
/ Entrance
Stepping
into the house from the porch, you will be embraced with a blush mauve color
that covers the walls in the entrance, dining room area, as well as the kitchen.
Flynn’s inspiration for this house was the 1980’s, and it shows. Instead of a
chandler in the dining area, there is a disco ball hanging from the 25-foot
ceiling. The majority of furniture is rounded with many different textures. The
cabinets in the kitchen are a bleached white oak lit up with vintage brass
lights. The kitchen is understated with hints of lavender and greys.
Living
Room / Powder Room
Branching
off from the kitchen, you will find a powder room that has a dark green
geometric wallpaper covering the walls with a white toilet and sink. Also off
the kitchen is the living room. The walls and ceiling in this room are all
painted a solid gold color with a white brick fireplace on the back wall. This
room is filled with 1980’s art and complemented with traditional neutral
furniture.
Bedrooms
The
main bedroom takes on a much simpler look than the rest of the house. Flynn
said he wanted it to feel like the saying “cool, calm, and collected.” With a
tall ceiling, the bedroom walls are a soft grey and there are little to no
patterns in the room beside the curtains. It is filled with a mix of textures
though. It has accents of a pink coral color you will find throughout most of
the house. Attached to the main bedroom are a walk-in closet and HUGE bathroom.
The bathroom has a large walk-in shower with a deep-seated tub to the left of
it. Above the tub, you will see an art gallery with more 1980’s inspired art.
The walls are white, with more touches of the coral pink in the art, and the
cabinets are accented with brass on all the fixtures like the mirrors and
handles.
Going
onto the other bedrooms, you will go down a dark coral-colored hallway with
matching trim to a bedroom the same color but with blush trim. The bedding includes
the same color palates with a vintage light wood desk next to the bed. The next
guest bedroom has the same color as well with matching trim accented with a
lighter green. Flynn in the tour video said he wanted both rooms to be filled
with color and to feel cozy. The bathroom for these two rooms is all black. The
tub, toilet, tile, and wall color are all black brought together with a little
bit of light with a piece of art that also has accents of black.
Back
Yard / Garage
Stepping
back outside there is a cozy back patio with seating for six. The basic
furniture is simple and sleek but the 1980’s feel from the house is brought
back out to the patio with throw pillows and blankets matching the color scheme
used in the house. To the side of the back patio, there is a walkway that
connects to the driveway and the garage. The garage is a single-car garage intended
to be used for a garage party space. With more rounded-shaped furniture that is
stain proof, a beautiful light fixture above the coffee table, this space is
perfect for guests to hang out. If you go a little further into the backyard,
you will find an outdoor dining space. The space is next to a mature tree and
has lights above it going from the tree to two posts on the other side.
This
house is truly a beauty. It has a unique design that fits into the Broad Ripple
area perfectly. The public can enter to win this beautiful home and an exciting
