This luxury east side home with over 4,500 sq ft of finished space offers quality construction throughout with many custom finishing touches. Built by Tim Laughlin in 1998, this two owner home is set on 2.7 acres off a private cul-de-sac in University Elementary school district and located only 3 miles to Indiana University, very close to east side shopping, and the bypass. The land has garden space, a wooded perimeter, fire pit, and plenty of room for recreation and relaxation.Once inside the foyer, the home opens into a large living room with lots of natural light, a library to the side with beautiful built-ins, and a stunning dining room. The remodeled gourmet kitchen features a walk in pantry, soapstone counter tops, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf six-burner gas range, Ferree cabinets and a casual dining space overlooking the private yard. The laundry off the kitchen houses space for a home office, and a screened deck off the living room allows more outdoor living space.The bright master suite, also located on the main level, includes a private deck that overlooks the yard, large bath and a walk in closet with built-in shelving. Upstairs is well-planned space that includes a large bonus room that is being used as a playroom, two bedrooms that share a large bath and an additional bedroom suite. There are extra storage closets upstairs that would be hard to find in most homes.The unfinished basement with nearly 2,400 sq. feet is currently being used for storage. A new owner could turn this into a playroom, or media space for the family.
