Welcome to Canterbury

Canterbury Condominiums in Indianapolis are in a terrific part of on the North Side, just East of the thriving intersection of 86th Street and Ditch Road. Over 40 years ago Canterbury Condominiums was transformed from an apartment complex to 160 individually owned condominium units. It’s a pleasantly affordable gem in Washington Township.

Below, learn more about:


The Canterbury Neighborhood

You wouldn’t know it from the peace and quiet in the community, but Canterbury Condominiums sits alongside one of the best commercial districts in Indianapolis, the St. Vincent/86th & Ditch neighborhood. Shopping, restaurants, pharmacies, and groceries are all nearby.

Walk

The immediate neighborhood boasts over 20 places to grab a bite to eat, from terrific local restaurants like Oakley’s BistroOcean World SushiIndia Cafe, Amara Indian Cuisine, and The Parthenon Restaurant to name a few, to familiar national chains including Starbucks, Baskin Robbins, Subway, and Applebee’s.

Feeling a little international? The Canterbury neighborhood features Cajun (Yats!), Mediterranean, Thai, Mexican, Japanese, Chinese, Indian, and Russian cuisine. How about some breakfast? There are great options, including The Original Pancake House and Lincoln Square (plus Dunkin’ Donuts and Starbucks, if you’re in more of a hurry). How about some pub grub? Four options, including The Rusty Bucket straight across the street. Pizza? Three great options, including local classic Puccini’s Smiling Teeth.

Shopping on a budget? Visit Thrifty ThreadsHalf-Price Books, or Salvation Army. Picking up a prescription? CVS is a block away.

Drive

Rather drive? Shopping abounds on West 86th Street, from nearby Ditch Road all the way West to Michigan Road and on to the Traders Point area. Back East, the Nora neighborhood’s shopping begins two miles away on East 86th street, with The Fashion Mall just a couple miles further.

There are multiple grocery stories along West 86th Street within two miles, including Fresh Thyme, Kroger, Trader Joe’s, and Wall-Mart, plus additional options less than three miles East in the Nora area, including Whole Foods, Aldi’s, another Kroger, and Target.

To the North, Canterbury is a short hop to 465 access. And the Meridian Street corridor between 91st Street and 465 has grown tremendously in recent years.

Public Transit

Prefer public transit? IndyGo’s Route 86 – 86th St. Crosstown runs between Trader’s Point and Castleton Square Mall and connects with many other IndyGo routes. It’s end-to-end access to 86th street within the 465 loop.
