About This Home

As of April 2019

Incredibly rare opportunity! Completely custom remodel on 5+ acres. Secluded but close to the finest dining and shopping in northwest Indiana. This home offers 4 large bedrooms. The master is on the main level and has a bathroom that every high end buyer is looking for with a huge walk in tiled shower, separate large soaking tub and a 7' granite dual sink vanity. The custom kitchen has 42 inch upper cabinets, an island for preparing and a peninsula for chairs for those morning breakfasts. The upper level has an unfinished 16 X 16 room that has the potential for a 5th bedroom. The home sits in the middle of 5 acres for the ultimate privacy. There are two closer neighbors with custom homes and huge pole barnes for hobbies, horses, etc. This home has everything you need. It is a turn key custom remodel on plenty of land for whatever your needs or hobbies may be. The taxes do not currently reflect any exemptions so those should drop drastically once buyer gets those filed.
