Historic character, recreational acreage, and convenient access to Patoka Lake come together on this unique 40 +/- acre property in Orange County, Indiana. Located at 6522 W Co Rd 875 S, the property is perfectly positioned between French Lick, Paoli, and Patoka Lake. The centerpiece is an impressive log cabin constructed in 2007 using logs documented to have been cut in 1863 and relocated from Spencer County. The cabin features Ash hardwood floors, travertine tile in the spacious newly remodeled eat-in kitchen, a comfortable living room, and finished upper-level living space. A 34-foot-long front porch provides expansive views of the surrounding property, while windows throughout the cabin fill the inside with natural light. The kitchen received a complete renovation in 2023 with fully custom cabinetry, leathered granite countertops, and natural stone flooring. The property is offered turnkey, with most furniture purchased new beginning in 2022, along with new mattresses, linens, pillows, and houseware. Recent improvements include exterior timber staining and new chinking paint in 2024. Additional features include a built-in lightning protection system, large cellar, completely spray-foamed crawlspace, and fiber optic internet. The acreage offers excellent recreational potential with abundant wildlife, a 2.4-acre food plot planted in four perennial clover varieties, and numerous fruit-bearing persimmon trees. The property sits between two fingers of Patoka Lake, with two boat ramps within approximately five minutes, providing convenient access to boating, fishing, and other lake recreation. French Lick is less than 15 minutes away, offering dining, entertainment, golf, resort amenities, and other attractions. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, weekend retreat, recreational property, or potential vacation rental, this property combines a distinctive historic cabin, productive wildlife habitat, modern improvements, and an outstanding Southern Indiana location.
