The Hidden Acres residence sits upon 2.66 acres nestled in the woods offering privacy off Indiana State Road 69, a short 6-miles South of Historic New Harmony, Indiana. Originally built in the 1920's, and meticulously restored and expanded by James A. Sanders, the home features historic charm combined with modern amenities, and is one of the most unique properties of its type in Southern Indiana. Mr. Sanders' attention to detail is evidenced within all aspects of the home which has regularly hosted guests. On the interior you will note restored woodwork and panel doors, decorator wallpaper, hand-selected light fixtures, accent lighting, skylights, and crown mouldings. On the exterior: copper gutters, unique lantern post lights shining on the entries, brick garden beds, brick retaining walls, iron gates, and intentional tree and landscape plantings. With over 2,306 square feet inside, the spaces have been professionally designed as a livable home. Two bedrooms flank the formal dining area which is complete with a brick hearth wood-burning fireplace on the South Side of the residence. The spacious kitchen boasts updated cabinets, a large island with granite top and leads into an outstanding vaulted sunroom with floor to ceiling windows, chandelier, and tray lighting. An open air deck within the woods is accessed by french doors just off the sunroom, as is the screen porch on the opposite side of the sunroom overlooking the neighboring lake and farm fields. A sitting room and bathroom connect the kitchen to the dining area and bedroom wing. A small powder room is located just off the west entry to the residence. A separate library/den on the west wing of the home features a fireplace and built-in cabinets with ample natural light from the bay window facing the garden.
