Below you will find the description of this home. As the owners we would like to share a few thoughts. This place is not about the house or the barn, it’s about the serenity you feel when you step on the property. We suggest stopping at the pond and get out of the car. Feel mother-nature's spiritual connection. This place is all about zen. If you want to feel an inner peace and commune with nature, then come experience what this property/home has to offer. This stunning, crafted home is nestled among 26 rolling acres in beautiful N Monroe County. The perfect estate for Indy/Bloomington commuters, just off I 69, it”s situated at the end of a long gated drive. As you meander down the lane you will pass a 2 acre stocked lake and a cedar barn. The upper level was used for volleyball and basketball games. There is over 5 acres of pasture and the potential for riding trails through the woods. The exterior of the home is accented by local sandstone from Oolitic Stone Co. As you enter the huge foyer you are struck by the vaulted ceilings with ornate carved beams and the curved cherry staircase with wrought iron spindles.
