About This Home

As of November 2014

Building up for public auction . GRACEFULLY AGED WITH 117 YEARS TIED TO SUMAN VALLEY HISTORY. This is a rare building indeed. The all brick schoolhouse built in 1896 after Colonel Suman plotted out the territory. This remarkable building housed and schooled children until 1913. The amazing brickwork came from the Porter Brickyards. Indiana limestone graces the carved numbers when the school was erected. The original Southern yellow pine front door is still intact. Most of the wood floors are original planks and much of the original woodwork remains. Currently the schoolhouse is listed as a historical building in Porter County. It has been carefully retrofitted for comfortable living while respecting the original nuances. Large daylight basement is perfect workshop area. Poised on a one acre site with a careful selection of trees and delightful landscaping, it is ready for a new owner with their creativity!
