About this home

Peaceful 17-Acre Retreat with Trails, Pond, Wildlife & Updated Home in Whitley County Welcome to your dream retreat in Whitley County—an unbelievably gorgeous 17-acre wooded paradise that offers serenity, privacy, and adventure all in one. Tucked among mature pines adorned with string lights, this two-story home is a rare blend of natural beauty and timeless charm. Explore acres of private trails, unwind by the gazebo, or enjoy the tranquil stocked pond—complete with a windmill aerator for a picture-perfect touch. Nature lovers will be in heaven with regular visits from deer, quail, and turkeys, and there’s even a meandering creek perfect for rock hunting. Whether it’s mushroom foraging or picking wild raspberries, every season here brings something new to enjoy. The property features three exterior buildings, one of which includes horse stalls—ideal for 4-H enthusiasts or hobby farmers. Inside, the home has been lovingly maintained to preserve its character while offering modern updates. The formal dining room features a charming built-in bookcase, and the remodeled kitchen stuns with floor-to-ceiling cabinets, gorgeous granite countertops, and included appliances—you can move right in! The main-level master suite and laundry room offer exceptional convenience, making everyday living easy and accessible—perfect for any stage of life. In addition to the master, there are two more bedrooms, plus a spacious loft currently being used as a fourth bedroom, ideal for guests, a home office, or flexible living needs. All windows have been replaced, and a new HVAC system was installed in 2017. The home and all outbuildings feature new or nearly new metal/shingle roofs, ensuring durability and peace of mind for years to come. If you’re seeking a private country estate with every amenity for comfortable living and outdoor adventure, this one-of-a-kind property is waiting for you.
