Victorian Fantasy on 80 Acres

Property Description

Once through the gated entry, a private winding drive leads past the man-made lake with its own sand beach to this one-of-a-kind residence set on 5 acres in Mill Creek, Indiana. Though Victorian in style on the outside, every modern convenience is contained within, including a whole house water filtration system; two 273 gallon hot water heaters for instant hot water; a massive zoned HVAC system with 11 forced air furnaces and 11 central air conditioners; a state-of-the-art security system; planned elevator from the basement to the third floor; 5 interconnected garages that hold a minimum of 30 cars; and much more. The main level has 12 foot ceilings throughout and features an over-sized living room leading to the main staircase, perfect for those grand entrances a la "Gone with the Wind"; a stunning master suite and bath with heated floors, walk-in closets and other wonderful surprises; a gourmet kitchen that opens into the spacious dining room, which has its own fireplace; the home's connected garages, which are finished to match the interior of the home and boast heated floors; and a central courtyard with a planned in-ground pool. The second level has six bedroom suites, each with its own luxurious bath and fireplace, that all lead out onto a large private living room. This floor also sports two laundry rooms, one for each wing of bedroom suites. The third floor contains two "secret" rooms - the first is perfect for a hidden home office, far from any distractions and interruptions; and the second is an open-air sun room ideal for viewing the breadth of the property while lounging next to the outdoor fireplace. There also is a fantastic media room that is open above into the tower, where a spiral staircase leads to the romantic widow's peak overlooking the property. The basement has 16 foot ceilings and that latest home accessory you cannot be without - a "panic room." Extravagant, elegant and spacious, this property's design is also surprisingly warm, thoroughly comfortable and thoughtfully scaled for today's more relaxed lifestyles, making it ideal for a grand private residence or a truly unique country inn. Since this one-of-a-kind property is almost finished, now is the perfect time to make those final "finish work" choices. Do not hesitate to schedule a private tour today.
