5 acres in Monroe County, IN

Enjoy the tranquility of country living while also being just minutes from all Bloomington has to offer. This wooded 5-acre parcel sits back off of Lampkins Ridge Rd and features a lovely log home built by Ernie Higgins 50 years ago. The Tulip Poplar exterior timbers are solid and have been well-maintained. This home provides a wonderful foundation and plenty of possibilities for the next owner to make the updates that work best for them while enjoying the current space. The living room features a Brown County Stone wood-burning fireplace and a tongue and groove wood ceiling with timber accents. The kitchen and dining area are combined and provide easy access to the living room or the expanded back deck that overlooks the property's backyard. The kitchen features an original Hotpoint cooktop and built-in oven that work perfectly. Great for the antique enthusiasts! The walk-in pantry off the kitchen accommodates the washer & dryer, which are included in the sale. There are 3 bedrooms and a full bath rounding out the main level. In the walkout basement, there is the 4th bedroom, the 2nd full bath, a den, storage and mechanical rooms, and a large family room with a propane stove. *The current owner is transitioning to a smaller place out of state and is working to clear out the many years of artifacts. The property includes an oversized 24'x24' two+ car detached garage and a large gardening/storage shed. The fenced area is perfect for pets or possibly small farm animals, and has an electric wire around the top. This could be just the dream property you've been looking for! **The wood playset, the Murphy bed, and the canvas-covered carport are excluded. The roof on the garage is 2 years old.
