About this house rental
Slow down where Indianapolis slows down. Nestled in the heart of Broad Ripple, just steps from the Monon Trail, Sunday on the Monon is a thoughtfully designed 4-bedroom brick bungalow that invites you to resettle, reconnect, and rediscover what it means to travel without stress.
Whether you're planning a family reunion, a work retreat with colleagues, an extended stay, or a girls' weekend out, this home is built for exactly that: restful nights, unhurried mornings, and plenty of room to spread out between Indianapolis adventures.
THE SPACE
This brick bungalow is designed with your comfort in mind. Neutral finishes, colorful artwork, and local Indianapolis and Indiana references create a relaxed sense of place the moment you walk in. The entire home is yours — 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, two separate living rooms, and a private office that together create flexible space for groups to gather or spread out as they please.
MAIN LEVEL
The living room welcomes you with a sofa, two chairs, books, a fireplace, and 65-inch Smart TV — perfect for quiet evenings. The dining room seats six comfortably, while the breakfast nook seats three to four and opens directly onto the backyard deck. A fully equipped kitchen, stocked for eight guests, includes all the cooking basics you need to prepare meals together. The standout feature? A curated multi-method coffee bar complete with drip coffee, French press, Keurig, locally sourced beans, a grinder, syrups, tea, honey sticks, and to-go cups — because mornings matter.
The main level also has Bedroom 1 (king bed, 65-inch Smart TV) and Bedroom 2 (queen bed, 55-inch Smart TV), plus a full bathroom with tub/shower.
Families with young children will appreciate thoughtful touches: children's dishes and books, games, a high chair, and a permanently installed baby gate.
BEDROOMS & SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Bedroom 1 (Main Level): King bed, 65-inch Smart TV — sleeps 2
Bedroom 2 (Main Level): Queen bed, 55-inch Smart TV — sleeps 2
Bedroom 3 (Basement): King bed, 55-inch Smart TV — sleeps 2
Den with Twin Trundle (Basement): Twin trundle with two twin mattresses — sleeps 2
Total capacity: 8 guests
The basement king bedroom and den are connected without a door between them, and the den has a separate door to the rest of the basement. This layout is especially useful for two adults traveling with two children, offering privacy while keeping everyone close by.
BASEMENT LIVING SPACES
The finished basement is its own world. A second living room features a sofa, two chairs, 75-inch Smart TV, books, and board games — plus foosball for friendly competition. Basement Bedroom 3 (king bed, 55-inch Smart TV) connects to the private office/den, which includes a desk, chair, and high-speed Wi-Fi (plan speeds up to 500 Mbps). A second full bathroom with stand-up shower and washer/dryer with detergent complete the basement level. (Note: Basement ceilings are lower than the main level, and access requires stairs.)
OUTDOOR LIVING
The fully enclosed backyard is where life slows down. Start your morning on the front porch swing, then settle onto the deck beneath mature trees. The gas grill is ready for dinner, the wood-burning firepit (firewood provided) gathers everyone together as evening falls, and string lights set the perfect pace for an easy night. A two-car driveway means you can explore without worrying about parking when you return.
NEIGHBORHOOD & LOCATION
Broad Ripple is one of Indianapolis's most beloved neighborhood destinations. The home sits in a quiet residential area surrounded by attractive homes, yet keeps the neighborhood's best features close at hand — independent restaurants, specialty coffee shops, breweries, boutiques, and recreation that give the area its personality.
LOCAL FAVORITES & DINING
Within walking or short biking distance: BRICS ice cream (in the historic Monon Railway Station), Flatwater for canal-side dining with seasonal live music, Monon Coffee Company, Broad Ripple Brewpub, and Marigold's, a women-owned boutique that reflects the neighborhood's independent spirit.
OUTDOOR RECREATION
Broad Ripple Park offers trails, river access, tennis, and pickleball. Holliday Park is a short drive away. The Monon Trail runs right past your door — bring your bikes, walking shoes, or running gear and experience one of Indianapolis's most-loved neighborhood corridors.
