Looking for SWAC schools, privacy, country living, and the opportunity for creating your own estate? This amazing one-owner property is waiting for the next chapter in its story. Built and lived in by the original/current family, it is a diamond in the rough. With nearly 5 acres of SWAC wooded acreage, the views of nature from every window, wildlife, peace, and quiet abound. Deer and turkey are not uncommon. With Barred Owls calling in the evening and Orioles or Brown Thrashers singing throughout the day, this property can be your own private preserve. The original house was built in the early 70s, lovingly maintained, and a huge unfinished addition was started several years ago. It is all under roof, sided, and weather tight, but the interior has not been completed. The main house has a huge master suite, large great/living room, beautiful views, two more bedrooms, kitchen, foyer, and THREE awesome fireplaces. The master, living room, and den/bar have the coziness of the fireplaces. The den's fireplace is built with stone from the property by the original owner. With two geothermal systems, steel roof, custom windows, tons of natural light, and huge living spaces, the vision that was the original owner's can be completed to your preferences. Within minutes of Lafayette Meadows Elementary, the IU Health Campus, Lutheran, GM, SDI, tons of entertainment, I69, and various other industry, the location is almost too good to be true.
