So you want to live in the country? It doesn't get any better than this! Ohio Township in rural Columbus is just like Brown County with rolling hills and mature forest-this wonderful house is nestled on 19.417 acres surrounded by fields, streams, and trees. Wow! The quiet is intoxicating. This time of year, green is everywhere; in the winter, a sledding hill out back by the barn is the place to hang out. Just 15 minutes from downtown Columbus. The driveway hints at a home that is a cross between Martha Stewart and TC Steele as you glide up toward the house. The contemporary design features industrial touches like galvanized siding on not one, not two, but three stories. Insulated concrete walls provide enhanced R-value and energy efficiency throughout the home. The top floor is the primary retreat perched up high, with tons of closet space, its own full bath, a small office, and spectacular views helped along by expansive Pella windows. The middle floor consists of three bedrooms and a full bath. Heading down to the main floor, guests enter from the big wraparound porch into a welcoming entry hall. The powder room is right where it should be. The huge living room is set at a jaunty angle and boasts 14-foot ceilings, too many windows to count, and concrete floors begging for interesting area rugs. The real scene-stealer is a large masonry fireplace made of cinder block. The house is heated and cooled by several split systems so every area-including that third floor!-has adequate HVAC coverage for the hottest Hoosier summer days and the coldest winter nights. The fireplace is designed to fire up from two sides as a wood-burning stove does, with the block warming to send radiant heat throughout. The large kitchen opens to a large screened porch. Two barns and a 19th-century cabin-style artist's retreat/child's playhouse/remote office complete the picture. Full basement playroom.
