One of a kind property in Indianapolis on your own private lake at the front of our 60 acre property. You are free to roam the front 10 acres (including the full lake). From the backyard you can see our horses in the pasture next door.
Watch the sunset as the property comes to life at night with all of the sounds of nature.
It’s not Uncommon to see deer in the field, turtles sunbathing on the lake, our resident blue Herron, “Harold”, wild turkey, or the families of ducklings who live here in the spring!
The lake is a natural water source fed by a creek. Although we do our best to treat it, there are times when the natural vegetation is beyond our control.
The house is located next to a big open field, and while we take necessary precautions to keep out any bugs and field mice, the occasional visitor may make its way in.
Close to the interstate and downtown yet it feels like you are deep in the country in a nature preserve.
There are not many properties like this! Listen to crickets chirp, watch fireflies dance, horses play, and roast marshmallows over a fire at this enchanting cottage. Relax next to your own private waterfall feature overlooking the lake in the back yard.
We are on a main road and The home is at the front of the property so easily accessible and easy to find. You will hear cars passing when up at the front of the property.
