Spectacular, custom-built home on Lake Monroe set on 14-acre lot with lake frontage and boat slip at community dock! Situated only 10 miles from the IU campus and downtown Bloomington, this home would make a perfect weekend retreat or a peaceful year-round residence. Originally built in 2000 with a major addition in 2007, this immaculate home has been lightly lived-in and lovingly maintained by the original owners. It’s hard to decide which wonderful feature of this property to highlight first, there are so many! Start with the main level great room, with its soaring ceilings, full-height windows, and stone fireplace. But that’s not even the room with the best views, which are found upstairs in the gorgeous family/entertainment room with vaulted wood-beam ceilings. Large decks off both rooms allow outdoor enjoyment of the views. Many 4th of July fireworks viewing parties have been held here! Enormous custom kitchen with dining area is open to the great room, and features Plum Creek cabinetry, granite countertops, high-end appliances, wine fridge/wine racks, and abundant storage organized for every need! Hardwood floors throughout all common areas. The master suite is upstairs and includes the master bedroom, full bath, and loft area. Two additional bedrooms and full bath on the main level, plus a den, half bath, and laundry room. The walkout lower level offers a finished multi-purpose room with another full bath. Two attached garages provide parking for 3 vehicles. Over 3500 finished square feet in all! Community boat dock with dedicated boat slip is a short walk or golf cart ride away along a wooded trail (listing agent will provide further information). A short hike though the woods in the other direction brings you to your private lake frontage. A truly extraordinary property! Additional notes: The house looks so much like it has cedar siding, it fools everyone! But it's actually a no-maintenance vinyl polymer product called Cedar Impressions by Certainteed. All decks are a Trex-like composite material. Even wood structural posts are sheathed in composite material for uniform appearance and minimal maintenance!
