3303 S McGowan Rd

Tucked away on over 14 acres of serene, wooded land, this one-of-a-kind retreat offers privacy, character, and endless possibilities. Ideally located near Lake Monroe, close to the charm of Brown County, and only 12 minutes from Bloomington’s east side amenities. The main residence is an inviting 3-bedroom home featuring vaulted, beamed ceilings crafted from timber milled on-site. The living room centers around a stone wood-burning fireplace and is filled with natural light from expansive windows that frame wooded views. The updated kitchen boasts stainless appliances and custom cabinetry. The dining room and 3-sided main level patio add multiple areas for seating and dining. The primary suite's beautifully updated bath includes a freestanding clawfoot tub, tiled shower, and dual-sink vanity. The loft provides flexible space for play, guests, or working from home. You’ll find thoughtful details throughout, including antique salvage oak church doors, tile and hardwood flooring, new Andersen windows, and a custom-forged stair railing crafted locally. Beyond the main home, the property continues to impress with multiple additional structures. A fully equipped guest house includes a bedroom, full bath, kitchen, loft, and back deck, perfect for guests. A separate studio with full bath, kitchenette, and 2-car garage offers additional living or creative workspace. The spacious barn features a cement floor, electricity, fresh paint, and a loft for added storage or workspace. The existing chicken coops and a large fenced pen with a goat house make the property ideal for hobby farming or homesteading. Outdoor recreation is always within reach on nearby Lake Monroe, nearby wildlife observation stations, or at the hillside gazebo tucked among the trees. This standout property is truly a special place to call home.
