Offering a finished walkout basement and an impressive detached garage/outbuilding, this property provides the space and flexibility that can be difficult to find in Central Indiana.

The primary bathroom has also been beautifully updated with Cambria quartz, custom cabinetry and travertine tile. Additional improvements include newer roofs on the home and garage, five Velux skylights, updated landscaping, newer lower-level flooring and newer carpet in the primary bedroom and stairway. Enjoy geothermal heating and cooling with a loop system in the pond, underground electric service and JC Fiber high-speed fiber-optic internet, an excellent feature for today's remote and hybrid-work lifestyle. The detached garage provides outstanding space for vehicles, equipment, hobbies or a workshop and includes a vehicle service pit. Outdoors, enjoy your private pond, fire pit area and acres of land for recreation, fishing, outdoor activities or simply enjoying the privacy of country living. For buyers relocating to Indiana or searching for a home with acreage south of Indianapolis, this property offers an opportunity to enjoy a private rural setting while remaining connected to the greater Central Indiana employment market.
