A rare 25+ acre country retreat near Lake Monroe, offering an exceptional combination of beautiful open acreage, mature woods, a private pond, multiple outbuildings, and a character-filled 2,100+ sq ft home. Expansive fields framed by mature trees create beautiful views and usable open space, while the wooded portions provide privacy and a peaceful natural setting. A private pond with dock adds another special feature to a property already rich with possibilities. The home complements its surroundings with a warm, rustic character featuring hardwood floors, exposed beams, extensive natural woodwork, soaring ceilings, and an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The dramatic main living area is open to the upper level, creating a distinctive lodge-inspired feel. The floor plan includes two main-level bedrooms, a full bath, kitchen, laundry area, and attached garage. Upstairs, the exceptionally spacious primary suite includes a private bath with double vanity and an abundance of closet space. Outside, the property offers much more than acreage alone. A barn, additional detached garage/workshop, attached garage, extensive covered porch space, private pond, open fields, and wooded acreage provide tremendous flexibility for recreation, gardening, hobbies, equipment, animals, or simply enjoying the privacy and beauty of the setting. Located close to Lake Monroe, this unique property combines the peacefulness and space of country living with easy access to one of southern Indiana's premier outdoor recreation areas. With 25+ acres, a pond, substantial open ground, mature woods, multiple outbuildings, and a truly distinctive home, this is a property that offers both character and possibilities that are increasingly hard to find. This property is an estate.

FR
AREA 1
Forest Reserve District
The character of the Forest Reserve (FR) District is defined as that which is primarily intended for the preservation of forests, recreational areas, parks and greenways, limited agricultural uses and very, very low density single family residential uses. Its purposes are to permit limited single family residential development on very large lots, to discourage the development of residential subdivisions and nonresidential uses, to protect environmentally sensitive areas, such as floodplain and steep slopes and to maintain the character of the surrounding neighborhood. Development in the FR District is hindered by extreme topography, poor access and the availability of few or no public services. Therefore, the number of uses permitted in the FR District is limited. Some uses are conditionally permitted. The conditions placed on these uses are to insure their compatibility with the low-density residential and public open space uses.
