Description
Located just north of French Lick and West Baden in Orange County, this 5-acre wooded retreat offers a quiet setting surrounded by natural beauty. The 924 sq ft cabin features one bedroom, one bathroom, and a loft used as additional sleeping space. Recent updates in 2023 include a new roof, a new wood stove, and a private water well, adding comfort and dependability to the rustic setting. Utilities include Orange REC electric, Fiber high-speed internet service, private septic, and an additional cistern that could be repurposed for livestock, gardening, or survival uses.
The homestead acreage includes a variety of established plantings and edible resources. Mature grape vines, Jerusalem artichokes, a peach and apple tree, and thriving blackberry and raspberry bushes provide seasonal produce. The sellers have also found both morel and chicken of the woods mushrooms on the property, reflecting its healthy woodland ecosystem.
The land is primarily wooded with mature white oaks and connects to the nearby Hoosier National Forest, providing habitat for wildlife and opportunities for hunting or exploration. A southwest-facing opening near the cabin offers space for gardening or light livestock. Access is by a steep private lane that leads to a small parking area suitable for one vehicle.
With its peaceful location, existing updates, and productive homestead features, this property offers a manageable balance of comfort and simplicity. It could serve as a hunting cabin, weekend retreat, or small-scale residence, all within a short drive of French Lick’s resort amenities and entertainment.
