I'm pleased to offer this highly anticipated, inviting homestead at 8950 Baker Rd, in Indianapolis. Built in 1957, this charming home was built by the hands of the patriarch of the family. It has been in the same family ever since. It is ready for you to move in and begin your next chapter. The home offers three comfortable bedrooms, providing ample private space. With two full bathrooms, convenience is paramount. One bathroom features a walk-in shower. Appreciate the rustic charm of the natural finished woodwork throughout, including gleaming hardwood floors. Downstairs, you'll appreciate the dry basement that offers additional space for comfortable entertaining, with additional storage galore. There are 3 heating sources to choose from for your comfort needs. Step outside to enjoy either welcoming porch, perfect for quiet mornings or relaxed evenings. The expansive 5.4 acre lot provides a sense of privacy and endless possibilities for outdoor enjoyment. The 30'x23' detached garage is every homesteaders dream. Enjoy the 11' interior ceiling height, accessed through the 9'-8" tall opening that is over 15' long. Inside, you'll find 220v power and an industrial high volume air compressor for all your mechanic needs. Secondary garage is 30'x14', with a 9' tall door that's 10' long. Property consists of about 2.4 acres in front, with a pasture/meadow in back of approximately 3 acres, with a shared pond, in between. Acreage offers unlimited possibilities for the discerning homeowner yearning for seclusion, with the convenience of being to most areas of interest with only a short commute. Find yourself within 10-15 minutes of employment, enjoyable rural wineries or high traffic arteries, depending on your interests and needs. Bring your Highlander cow or fainting goat and pursue the rural lifestyle you've always dreamed of. Embrace this opportunity today.
