On nearly a 3/4 of an acre lot on the outskirts of the town of Lafontaine in Wabash County, you'll love the country type feel of the spacious back yard. It's actually on two lots, a front lot with the house, attached garage, detached garage, and two connected barns, plus a back one, that would be perfect for a large garden, recreational space, and more. The home has been substantially updated in the last seven years. The home is taxed as a 4 bedroom home. The main floor bedroom has an adjacent area in front of it that could make for a great closet space. Two bedrooms with closets are upstairs, then the loft without a closet is presumably the room taxed as the 4th bedroom, or could make a nice space for a variety of other things. There are hardwood floors in that main level bedroom as well as the living room. The living room is spacious, around 26' by 12', and the kitchen is nice sized too at around 13' by 12'. Your dining space could be in either of those two rooms. There is also a mud room and laundry room leading from the kitchen area out to the attached garage. Taxes combined for both parcels payable in 2024 is only $639.04 with a homestead exemption. This home would be great for someone wanting something with a little bit of extra land or outbuilding space, but can't afford what they're finding in the country. It's also nice for people needing relatively quick access to both Wabash or Marion. Other towns are reasonably close too, with Peru being about a half hour drive away, and Bluffton being about 40 minutes. It's only about 35 minutes away from the General Motors plant near Fort Wayne, about 45 minutes away from the Fort Wayne International Airport, and about an hour from Muncie, as well as Noblesville north of Indianapolis.
