8235 State Road 26 E, Lafayette, IN 47905

Some homes just feel different the moment you arrive—this is one of them, where space, privacy, and a custom retractable covered patio set the tone for how this property lives. Tucked just off State Road 26 between Lafayette and Rossville, this one-owner, custom-built home sits on nearly 10 acres across two parcels, offering space, privacy, and flexibility. Inside, you’ll find 1,788 square feet with an open-concept layout connecting the living room, kitchen, and dining area. Four bedrooms and two full baths provide room to spread out or adapt to your needs. The primary suite is a true retreat, accessed by a spiral staircase and featuring a unique jetted tub and shower combo that sets it apart from the ordinary. Step outside onto the deck overlooking wooded acreage where deer, turkey, and other wildlife are part of the daily backdrop. This is the kind of setting people are looking for when they say they want space and quiet. The detached three-car garage adds serious function and opportunity. The upper level has already been framed for additional living space, with plumbing roughed in for a bathroom including a toilet, shower, and urinal. The hard part is started. You can take it the rest of the way based on your vision. A standout feature is the custom adjustable covered outdoor space between the home and garage, designed with a cable system to raise and lower the roof. Originally used as a gathering spot for hosting and relaxing, it offers a unique setup for outdoor entertaining, shade, and flexible use. Additional features include electric already in place for a camper and two outbuildings ready for storage, equipment, or workspace. Set back off the road for added privacy while still maintaining convenient access to Lafayette, this property delivers the balance of seclusion and accessibility that’s getting harder to find.
