Property Description
Welcome to refined lakefront living on Hamilton Lake, one of Indiana’s premier all-sports lakes. Perfectly positioned on the main lake’s calm side, this exceptional property offers sweeping, unobstructed panoramic views and a pristine, clean silt-bottom shoreline free of lily pads and seaweed, ideal for swimming, relaxing, and effortless docking. With 40 feet of concrete seawall frontage and a 96-foot dock new in 2024, your summer is ready for boating, entertaining, and unforgettable sunrises. Originally owned by Joseph Echrich, son of Peter Eckrich, founder of Eckrich Farms, this rare offering blends local legacy with modern craftsmanship, a property rich in history yet thoughtfully updated for today’s lifestyle. This 4-bedroom, 4-bath residence is designed to capture lake views from nearly every angle. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly into a chef’s kitchen featuring granite countertops, soft-close cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, and premium appliances. A fireplace insert and inviting three-season room extend enjoyment well beyond summer, making this home ideal in every season. The main-level primary suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a spa-inspired steam shower. Upstairs, a private split-bedroom design offers comfort and flexibility, anchored by a spacious vaulted-ceiling lounge with breathtaking lake views and a convenient kitchenette, perfect for hosting guests after a day on the water. Three oversized bedrooms, a full bath, and a Jack and Jill bath with Jacuzzi tub and shower ensure ample accommodations for family and friends. Outdoor living is equally impressive. A stamped concrete patio and built-in stone fire pit create the perfect lakeside gathering space. The detached bunkhouse adds exceptional versatility with its own kitchenette, bathroom, mini-split HVAC system, and sleeping space for six, ideal for guests or extended stays. Additional highlights include two parcels, with the rear lot offering future build potential, an attached two-car garage with EV charger, metal roof, tankless water heater, owned water softener, security system, and included appliances. Select furnishings and watercraft are available for purchase or negotiation. A rare opportunity to own a piece of Hamilton Lake history while enjoying elevated lake living at its finest.
