About Founders' Grove
Founders' Grove is for buyers who love character. This established Bloomington neighborhood is filled with well-preserved historic homes, generous lots, and the kind of mature tree canopy that takes a century to grow. It's a short stroll to Downtown Bloomington's restaurants and cultural venues, and minutes from the historic David Davis Mansion. Homes here reward buyers who appreciate craftsmanship and a true sense of place.
