A spectacular four-season nature/wildlife preserve awaits your arrival at 464 Brownsburg Road West.

Once inside the gate you can drive up to the main house or continue beyond to the guest cottage. Under the covered porch, the front door welcomes you into the foyer with the formal dining room on your left, a well-appointed kitchen straight ahead and a wonderful family/entertainment room with fully equipped wine bar on your right. Here, you can entertain your guests comfortably and within easy reach of what is being prepared in the kitchen. Walking through the family room takes you to a four-season sun porch - currently the favored dining area to sit down with special friends. If you are lucky, on a winter evening you will be able to watch the snowflakes fall outside the room while a small fireplace flickers behind you. Head back across the family room and through the foyer into the formal dining room which can easily seat 14 guests. Between the formal dining room and kitchen is a bright and cheery breakfast area/game room or make it whatever you choose.

You can exit the house from the kitchen door, walk past the water lily pond and begin to explore the expansive gardens filled with native plants while listening to the chirps of assorted wild birds. Follow the steps up to the stunning saltwater swimming pool with blue stone deck and imagine yourself spending summer days and evenings taking in the sounds of nature while you unwind.
