Let the rest of the world and your troubles slip away as you escape to your own amazing private retreat in Brown County. A long (approximately 600') paved driveway winds through mature trees to this beautifully updated 2-bedroom cottage on 8.34 wooded acres, with a gorgeous pond/lake that is nearly an acre as the backdrop. The pond ranges from about 2' to 8' deep and you'll find bass, bluegill, crappie and grass carp to keep the water clean. There is a dock, wonderful wooded surroundings, a picnic area beneath the trees, and trails wind through the woods behind it. The dogwoods and flowers in the springtime bring beauty that rivals the fall that Brown County is so well known for. A covered porch and two sunny decks overlook the water, so there's plenty of room to relax or entertain. Inside, you'll find hardwood floors throughout with tile in the bathrooms. The living area centers on a brick fireplace with a gas log insert. The kitchen has hickory cabinets, granite counters and newer stainless appliances, and a sliding door opening to the covered porch and wonderful outdoor entertaining space. The spacious primary bedroom has a double closet. The second bedroom opens to a cedar-paneled bonus room tucked at the back of the home, a natural fit for a walk-in closet, hobby space or private office. The full bath has a beautiful new walk-in shower. The conveniently located laundry room also includes a half bath. Other noteworthy recent updates include a new roof and gutters, new windows in the back room, solid interior doors, updated lighting and ceiling fans, and a driveway seal coat. An oversized 2 detached garage, a storage shed with a lean-to and a treehouse complete the property. Despite the secluded feel, it's a convenient easy drive to Nashville, Bloomington and Indianapolis. This one has all the things!
