Description

Known historically as the Eutzler Country Manor, this extraordinary Victorian Italianate estate offers a rare opportunity to own one of Northern Indiana's most significant historic properties, boasting a storied legacy with title records tracing back to an 1830s land grant from President Andrew Jackson. Set back on over two picturesque acres of usable land, the home exudes architectural charm, from its idyllic covered veranda to its dramatic window crowns and intricate scrollwork corbels, all artfully highlighted by historically accurate hues. Diligently preserved with over $200,000 in recent improvements, this stunning property passes a tradition of meticulous care to its next stewards. Extensive updates include a new roof on both the main home and the garage, fresh exterior paint, completely restored historic windows, a fully renovated bathroom, a new combination water heater and high-efficiency boiler, and a brand-new upper-level heating and cooling system. Inside, the main level captivates with soaring 11.5-foot ceilings, hand-scraped wood plank floors, and elongated two-over-two windows that drench the rooms in natural light. Historic character meets modern convenience with a tastefully updated eat-in kitchen, main level laundry, and two spacious living areas. The first level floorplan is completed by a charming bedroom, 1.5 baths, an elegant formal dining room, and a secondary staircase leading to a secluded bonus space. A stately walnut staircase ascends to the home’s equally impressive second story, which is home to four additional bedrooms, including an expansive primary bedroom with a generous dressing area and direct, private access to the second full bath. Beyond the main residence, the estate features a climate-controlled three-car garage with an extra-tall door, as well as an exceptional finished flex space with its own half bath. Most recently utilized as a professional recording studio, this private structure offers an unparalleled setup for a luxury home office, guest suite, gym, or premier creative retreat. Enjoy your outdoor paradise with a newly fenced play area, an irrigated vegetable garden, morel mushroom foraging sites, mature trees, and serene pollinator-friendly plantings. As a special note, two outdoor cats have been lovingly cared for on the property; sellers would love for them to stay with the home, but can rehome them if necessary.
