OWN A PIECE OF HISTORY AS YOU STEP BACK IN TIME TO A PERIOD OF GRACE AND OPULENCE. $500K RECENT REMODEL ADDS ALL THE MODERN AMENITIES TO WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY A BARN BUILT BY THE FOUNDER OF NOTRE DAME, FATHER SORIN. SITTING ON ALMOST 7 ACRES, IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THE CAMPUS AND STADIUM, THIS LOVELY WOODED LOT WITH ITS BRIDGES AND JUDAY CREEK MEANDERING THROUGH, IS A SETTING OFFERING PEACE AND TRANQUILITY NOT OFTEN FOUND IN THE CITY. The house itself oozes charm and elegance of days gone by, with its magnificent great room, with huge stone fireplace, original hand-hewn beams with planked ceiling and stained glass windows. The newly added-on upper floor (2009) features a large master with walkout deck overlooking the scenic woods, plus 2 large additional bedrooms. On the main level the kitchen has all the modern features like granite countertops and high end stainless steel appliances. There's a large living room, formal dining room and the laundry area is right off the kitchen. Garage and large barn that was formerly a blacksmith shop would make a wonderful art studio. This one of a kind property would make a great B & B, meeting house for various departments or a great development so close to campus.
