CUSTOM LOG HOME FOR SALE ON 80 ACRES,
HISTORIC TOWN OF MADISON, INDIANA
This modern, 3300 sq. ft., ranch-style home is located on 80+ acres, a combination of wooded and tillable pasture. The home is completely private, but only 10 minutes from downtown Madison, Indiana, a designated National Historic Landmark District. This home began in 1974 as a small log cabin getaway which was later expanded to its current size and layout by the addition of logs from two original Indiana log cabins. Logs and most beams are hand hewn and a variety of charming features from the original log cabins such as carvings, a pulley, hooks, side door and the loft stairway have been incorporated into the design. Some of the beams and the family room fireplace stones are from an onsite barn that dates from the 1840's.
The home features: hand-hewn logs, tongue-in-groove, hardwood plank floors, a large, modern, "cook's" kitchen, 3 bedrooms and 3 baths on the main floor and a 17' x 19' finished loft with private deck on the 2nd floor. A wide, covered deck surrounds three sides of the home. Extensive landscaping includes a garden pond with waterfalls, wood storage barns and a variety of nearly new outbuildings including two large pole barns. Price: $450,000
