About This Home
Nestled along scenic Jordan Creek, this one-of-a-kind property was originally built in the early 1970s by Ken Schuette and offers a rare blend of privacy, nature, and thoughtful updates. The home sits on a stunning setting overlooking 178 acres of forested land owned by Purdue University Trustees, providing peaceful, uninterrupted views often described as million-dollar views. Inside, the home features approximately 3,200 square feet of finished living space, with nearly 4,000 square feet total finishable area. Expansive glass window and door combinations—48 feet along the rear and additional 20-foot spans on both the front and lower level—fill the home with natural light and showcase breathtaking views of the surrounding woods, pasture, and gardens. This spacious residence includes four bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and two fireplaces, including a gas fireplace insert installed three years ago. The walk-out basement adds versatile living space, complete with ceramic tile, a bedroom and bathroom addition, and easy access to the outdoors. The home has been well maintained with numerous updates over the years. The furnace was converted from oil to gas, with the current unit approximately nine years old. The roof and exterior paint were completed around eight years ago, along with new guttering and a septic pump. A new 240-foot well was installed just six months ago. The kitchen and bathrooms were remodeled approximately ten years ago, and a lower-level bedroom and bathroom addition was completed about fifteen years ago. The front entrance welcomes you through a charming garden courtyard featuring a tranquil koi pond, while the backyard offers a mix of wooded areas, pasture, and diverse plantings—perfect for relaxing or exploring. Additional features include a workshop, abundant storage, and a convenient location just minutes from Purdue University, shopping, and schools. This is a rare opportunity to own a peaceful retreat with character, space, and convenience.
