DescriptionThis beautiful retreat is so much more than just land, trees, house, barn, and lake!!!
First of all, the location: Saint Croix is VERY centrally located amongst several large cities. We are less than 2 miles off of Interstate 64, in Southern Indiana. The cities surrounding us are Louisville, KY (45 minutes East) Saint Louis (3 hours west), Indianapolis (2.5 hours Northeast), Nashville, TN (3 hours Southwest), and Cincinnati (2 hours East).
Second, the size and description of the land: 13.5 acres of beautifully landscaped and rolling wooded grounds. It is adjacent to the Hoosier National Forest, so it feels very secluded, but close to everything. The fishing in the stocked lake, and the hunting are both EXCELLENT!!! The front portion of the ground is landscaped and park like, with the fountain in the lake providing the MOST serene atmosphere you can imagine! The birds singing, the squirrels chasing one another from tree to tree, the deer meandering across the field to take a drink from the lake! When you pull onto the property you feel as if you have left behind the whole world and entered a make believe place from a favorite book! I have been all over the US, but when I drove onto this property, it was like nothing I had ever experienced before! There is a very ZEN quality to the formation of the decking and the little sitting area overlooking the lake
Next the home: It is 3600 square feet on 3 levels, with an additional 552 square feet in an attached double garage. There are 5 bedrooms, living room, dining room, office, two laundry rooms, two kitchens, 2 1/2 baths, and a meandering array of decks for enjoying the tremendous atmosphere outside. All three levels are graced with elaborate crown molding and bold warm colors. The partial second floor is the Master Suite, consisting of a LARGE bedroom, adjoining bedroom, full bath, and lots of closet space. When you pass through the 8 foot wide sliding door to the upper deck, it is like sitting in a serene treehouse communing with all the birds and squirrels. The Large living room, bar, exercise area, second kitchen, and primary laundry room are in the basement. The large and beautifully renovated gourmet kitchen, dining room, three bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths and secondary laundry room are all on the main level.
