Property Description

Tucked away on 1.24 private, wooded acres just minutes from Raccoon Lake (Cecil M. Harden Lake), this freshly updated 4,800+ sq ft retreat offers 6 spacious bedrooms and room for the whole family - with lake access nearby for boating, fishing, and swimming, but none of the upkeep or price tag of waterfront living. Located in Parke County - the "Covered Bridge Capital of the World" - this home puts you minutes from 31 historic covered bridges and the region's biggest event of the year, the Parke County Covered Bridge Festival, drawing visitors from across the Midwest every October. Outdoor lovers will appreciate being close to Turkey Run State Park's rugged trails, cliffs, and Sugar Creek paddling, plus Shades State Park and the boat ramps, camping, and beaches of Raccoon State Recreation Area. Round out the weekend with a stroll through historic downtown Rockville's shops, restaurants, and Main Street events. And when the weekend is over Indianapolis is an hour away via US-36 - making this the perfect second home or getaway property without a long haul back to the city. Inside, the open-concept main level is made for gathering, with a huge deck overlooking a private, wildlife-filled backyard. The 2nd and 3rd floors hold all 6 bedrooms, each generously sized with extra-large closets. The property also backs to Army Corps of Engineers land, giving you direct access to even more acreage to hike and explore right from your backyard.
