Perched on a small rise and surrounded by trees, this home, with a Bedford stone exterior is sure to please the nature lover who also needs to be close to shopping and / or Purdue. A slate entry welcomes you and flows in to the sage-colored carpeting (in excellent condition) in the main part of the house.
The living room features a built in bookcase and plentiful windows which offer a wonderful view of the front and side yards. The eat-in kitchen boasts ceramic tile flooring, oak cabinetry, charcoal grey counter-tops, black appliances, and black sink. In the family room/den, a wood burning fireplace continues with the Bedford stone from the exterior that is flanked by cabinetry and bookcases. New carpet is being installed at this writing.
A master bedroom with full bath and two more bedrooms and a second full bath are located on the main floor. A fourth bedroom with ingress-egress windows and a half bath are located in the mostly finished basement. You will find a spacious laundry room with soaking sink and folding counter over cabinets to make a mundane chore much more pleasant. There is a room for use as a family room or place for the kids to play and, also, a large unfinished room to provide additional storage space. The large and very private backyard is wooded, has a shed for the storage of lawn equipment, and is fenced. Much updating has been done on this home, so it’s ready for move-in.

Separate utility area with stone tile and new washer and dryer.It’s not easy to find such a SWEET 2000 square foot ranch , (not counting the partially finished basement) on a half acre + lot in an established neighborhood within the city limits. This may be one, of only 3 or 4, currently available! Bonus: It’s on the east side of Lafayette near shopping and the freeway!
The current owner has an obvious love of gardening that is reflected in the many flower gardens all around this home. There is even a water garden with a man-made water-fall.
From the driveway let’s walk up the geometric-patterned brick walk to the front door. Stepping inside, we notice the ceramic floored entry, and beyond, the champagne-colored carpeting. The home features two bow windows, one in front in the living room and one in back that offers a striking view of the back yard from the breakfast nook. Speaking of windows, all are crank-outs for easy cleaning.
The kitchen has oak cabinetry with grey countertops and grey and cream vinyl flooring. There is, of course, an attached two-car garage. The laundry area is located as you enter the home through the garage. There is also a door to the back yard from the laundry area. The formal dining room has crown molding, a chair rail, and a built-in china cabinet. The bedroom wing consists of 4 bedrooms, and 2 full baths. There is also a half-bath in the basement. The basement is interesting. It has wood walls half-way up and a wood ceiling. There is a carpeted family room with built-in bar and spotlighting. The unfinished portion of the basement contains a large woodworking shop.
Back upstairs and looking to the back of the home is a glassed (with screens) 4 seasons room with access to the back yard and, (I’ve saved this for last!) the in-ground 36’ x 18’ diving pool surrounded by the aforementioned landscaping and a wooded ravine to the rear. Naturally, the entire rear yard is fenced for privacy and security.

Come on in to see this beautiful, perfectly kept home in one of the most desirable areas of West Lafayette. This home, built in 1972, with 1703 square feet of living space, plus 2 car garage, doesn’t show a bit of wear, and has been updated and decorated with the utmost care and attention to detail.
The exterior is brick, in a warm light-medium beige shade set off by brown shutters and white trim. The covered front entrance leads to a foyer with a view of the living room directly to your right. They are separated by turned wood spindles to half wall height that have been stained in a dark pine tone. The carpet in the living room (and throughout the home, wherever carpet is present) is a neutral beige, and, of course, in new condition. There is a second entrance to the living room from the dining area, for your entertaining convenience.
From the foyer we will turn left down the hall to the area occupied by the 3 bedrooms and 2 baths. All are a nice size with the master being a roomy 15’ x 12’. Storage is ample, with plentiful closet space. The master bedroom enjoys a private bath with tub/shower. The second full bath is located off the hall to serve the other two bedrooms.
Back to the main area of the home, and to the rear, we find the kitchen with warm, darker-toned cabinets, a work island/ breakfast bar and lovely appliances which are all included with the purchase of the home. The dining area is at the right end of the kitchen. It has a formal dining room feel while still actually being a part of the kitchen. To the right of the dining area is a half wall that is completed with spindles to the ceiling to allow for a view of the family room beyond. The family room shows off a wall of wonderful built-in cabinets and shelving for display of books or other treasures. A French double door, gives access to the large rear deck and beautifully landscaped back yard, as does a slider from the kitchen area.
What’s that building in the backyard? It is an extra bonus! Actually there could be many uses for this mini-house. It is currently set up for an office, but would, also work well for a play room for the kids, mother-in law suite, (so nice your OWN mother would like it!) or whatever you can imagine. The pictures don’t do it justice, so be sure to see it when you come by for your personal tour of this exceptional home.
