About this home
Over 16 acres of country living on the outskirts of growing Fortville! This property has been thoughtfully improved beyond typical farm ground - established black locust windbreaks line the west and south boundaries, providing wind protection, privacy screening, and a naturally renewable source of rot-resistant fence posts and firewood. A large mature oak anchors the west fence line, attracting abundant wildlife. The entire parcel has been transitioned from conventional row crops to cover crop (hairy vetch and winter rye), building soil health and organic matter. Flat terrain with 262.8' of road frontage and agricultural zoning offer flexibility - build your dream estate, start a gentleman's farm, or create a family compound. Recent survey on file. No HOA, no subdivision restrictions. Surrounded by active farmland yet minutes from Fortville's shops, dining, and easy access to I-69 and I-70. Drain tile in place. Wildlife abounds - deer activity is exceptional. A rare opportunity for someone who values both privacy and proximity. Buyer responsible for due diligence regarding county building requirements. Zoned Agricultural.
