Property Description
**Open House Sunday, April 27th 11am -1pm Central Time** Cozy Log Cabin Retreat on 8 Wooded Acres!! Welcome to your own slice of Tennessee tucked away in Walkerton, Indiana. Built in 2007 by the original owners and never before on the market, this Southland Log Home is a true hidden gem. Set on 8 peaceful acres of mature woods, this cozy retreat features 8" Stockade logs, freshly stained in fall 2024, and a classic wraparound porch with tree-line views in every direction. Inside, you'll find a warm blend of Oak and Hickory floors, a kitchen full of charm with cherry cabinets that stretch to the ceiling, Corian countertops, and breathtaking views of the woods beyond. Just off the kitchen, the fully screened-in back porch is the perfect spot for morning coffee or evening relaxation. The main floor primary suite includes a fully updated bath and a spacious walk-in closet. Across the way is another bedroom and a beautifully updated bathroom as well. A wood-burning Miller Stone fireplace warms the living room, primary bedroom, and basement—keeping things toasty all winter long with minimal gas use... meaning low gas bills!! The tall-ceilinged basement is a blank canvas for your personal touch. Outside, enjoy the beauty of all four seasons with plenty of space to roam, garden, or simply unwind. Three outbuildings offer great storage—including a two-year-old barn on a slab with an 8ft garage door. The detached 2-car garage is connected by a breezeway through the mudroom and features its own brand-new wood-burning stove. With a whole-house generator, two wells, a recently serviced septic system, and a NEW ROOF (fall of 2024) with the transferable warranty, this home is as practical as it is peaceful. This one-of-a-kind property offers the charm of a cabin getaway with the comfort of home—just 35 minutes from Valparaiso and just a few minutes from Koontz Lake. You won't find anything like this on the market!
