7130 S 650 W, Columbus, IN 47201-4745

Property Description

Set on nearly 20 acres just outside Columbus, this extraordinary estate offers a rare opportunity to create a legacy property surrounded by natural beauty, privacy, and endless possibility. Whether envisioned as a private retreat, family compound, hobby farm, recreational escape, or investment, the setting is as remarkable as the home itself. Designed to blend seamlessly with its surroundings, the custom residence was built to LEED Gold standards and showcases exceptional craftsmanship, durability, and energy efficiency. Constructed with AAC (autoclaved aerated concrete), spray-foam insulation, radiant in-floor heat, mini-split systems, a thermal mass fireplace, and a 12.7-kW grid-tied solar array, the home delivers year-round comfort with remarkably low energy demands. Inside, reclaimed materials from a century-old Indiana barn add character throughout, while custom-built-ins crafted from trees harvested on the property create a meaningful connection to the land. A flexible loft, detached workshop, and covered carport provide additional space. The land is truly exceptional. An expansive mature hardwood forest surrounds a picturesque 1.5-acre stocked lake, creating a private sanctuary for fishing, kayaking, hiking, wildlife watching, or simply enjoying the peaceful beauty of nature. Established gardens, native wildflowers, fruit trees, berry plantings, and a chicken coop offer opportunities for gardening, homesteading, and outdoor living. Originally envisioned as a planned sustainable community, the property remains zoned as a PUD with four additional platted lots. Water infrastructure has already been extended to the lots, and perc testing completed for future septic locations, providing flexibility for a variety of future uses. A property of this scale, privacy, and versatility is increasingly difficult to find, offering the rare chance to enjoy a lifestyle deeply connected to the land just minutes from the cultural amenities of Columbus, and within reach of Indy.
