Modern Farmhouse | 4 Bed | 3.5 Bath | Indoor-Outdoor Living
Taken down to the studs and reimagined by an architect, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in the heart of Michiana is essentially brand new—offering stylish design, luxurious finishes, and the rare peace of mind that comes with a full renovation.
The home's crisp new board-and-batten siding and updated exterior doors give it a timeless modern farmhouse feel. Inside, the main level has been completely opened up, featuring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and a sunlit great room that flows seamlessly to the outdoors. Folding glass doors open completely to the front deck, creating true indoor-outdoor living—perfect for entertaining or unwinding after a day at the beach. The expansive layout easily accommodates a dining table for 20+, making hosting large groups both effortless and enjoyable.
The relocated kitchen was designed with both beauty and function in mind: quartz countertops, solid wood soft-close cabinet doors, all new high-end stainless steel appliances, and custom drawer storage. A stylish powder room was added to the main level for convenience.
Two bedrooms are located on the main level, including a primary suite with a beautifully finished en suite bath that also allows hallway access for guests. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a spacious en suite that functions beautifully as a secondary primary suite. A spacious family room with new windows rounds out the lower level.
Renovated homes of this caliber are rare in Michiana, where most homes still retain their original finishes. This one offers not only style but substance:
--Engineered hardwood upstairs and soft, neutral carpet below
--Original tall windows in the great room reframed and reinstalled
--All new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, water heater and insulation
--New drain tile and sump pump
--Rebuilt structural beams and columns
--Leveled floors on both ground and main floors
--Don't need a fourth bedroom? The lower-level secondary primary suite offers the flexibility to be converted into a garage.
Ideally located just a short walk to Michiana's beloved beaches and Village Park with pickleball, bocce, and summer concerts--this turnkey home is a rare opportunity in one of the region's most sought-after beach communities.
