This 1906 colonial revival was built and first occupied by Harry Fitton, a prominent builder in Indianapolis. For many years, Fitton partnered with Lawrence George — the architect who designed the Towns-Holloway residence just across the street (3070 Penn). From 2001 through 2019 this was the home of Stephen and Julie Scott. When the Scotts bought this home in 2001, they had the daunting task of converting the house back to a single-family residence after a 20-year stint as a room-by-room rental, where as many as ten residents lived in the house at one time. This beautifully restored home features a grand staircase and stunning woodwork. The Irwins purchased the home in 2019.

• The original garage had been damaged by a fallen tree and was demolished in the late 1990s. It was one of only a few remaining garages that featured a special automotive electrical supply to recharge an antique electric car.
