Pittsboro
Located in Hendricks County
Just 26 miles northwest of Indianapolis, Pittsboro offers residents the natural beauty of vast Indiana farmland while providing close proximity to all the amenities of city life. Though public transportation is not currently available, residents enjoy a direct connection to Interstate 74. This rural community features a sprawling countryside that stretches out from the small pockets of suburban subdistricts toward the center. “The town authorities are citizen oriented,” says resident and Realtor, Ed Schrier. Residents often get together for an array of community events and festivals organized by the parks departments.
Planned developments can be found at the heart of Pittsboro. Walk along paved narrow sidewalks bordering tree-spotted lawns with decorative gardens and lush backyards. Street parking is plentiful, though many homes have carports and garages. Drive north or south from the center and the homes become few and far between amongst miles of sprawling, verdant farmland. Here, there’s no want for parking, as many residences have carports and long gravel driveways. The most common home style within the planned developments are contemporary new builds, though Craftsman style and Colonial Revival homes can be found throughout the neighborhood. Farmhouses are more common in the rural subdivisions to the north and south of the central planned development. Prices range from $350,000 to $500,000, with the average home price hovering around $400,000. Rural homes with more acreage tend to sell for up to $600,000.
“The school system is incredible,” says Schrier. “It’s very well organized and planned.” Students can begin at Pittsboro Elementary School, which earned an A on Niche while boasting a student-teacher ratio of 15-to-1. Students can continue at Tri-West Middle School, which scored an A on Niche. Students can finish at Tri-West Senior High School, which earned a B-minus on Niche.
After school, students can head to Scamahorn Park which features a playground, a walking track and several newly added amenities. “They’ve made some fantastic upgrades to the park. There are new soccer fields and a new pickleball court— it’s all been very popular,” says Realtor Rachel Phillips. “The parks department also features community-wide movie nights.” If golf is more your game, book a tee time at West Chase Golf Club. This 18-hole championship golf course also features a pavilion and clubhouse suitable for hosting larger events.
Drive to East Main Street and grab breakfast at Ricky's Pancake House, a staple among the local gathering spots. For dinner, head to the Mason Inn. “The Mason Inn is the most popular. They’ve got some great, elevated bar food.” Says Philips. For groceries, head to Kroger, just 3 miles west of the neighborhood. For all things home improvement, head to Lowes off of Interstate 74.
Settle in along Main Street on the 4th of July and start the day with the annual Pittsboro Freedom Celebration Parade. Afterward, continue to Scamahorn Park, where locals enjoy food, a magic show, live music and a vast array of vendors. The event ends with a bang as fireworks burst against the backdrop of a black night sky.
