Location. Layout. Lifestyle. This is the one you've been waiting for. Perfectly situated in top-rated Carmel Clay Schools and nestled conveniently between Conner Prairie and the Arts & Design District, this expansive 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offers the space, flexibility, and location that any lifestyle demands. With Plum Creek Golf Club, Prather Park, and Clay Middle School all within minutes -- and a community pool just steps away-you'll find yourself right in the heart of one of Carmel's most coveted areas. From the moment you step onto the covered front porch and through the dramatic 2-story foyer, the home draws you in with its vaulted ceilings, open staircase, and abundant natural light. The cathedral-ceiling great room centers around a wood-burning fireplace and towering windows, creating a space that feels both cozy and grand. Just off the great room, the open-concept kitchen boasts a large island, underlit cabinets, corner pantry, and breakfast room with access to the elevated deck; a perfect perch to take in serene tree-line views with no neighbors behind. The main level primary suite is a true retreat, complete with vaulted ceilings, walk-in closet, dual sinks, garden tub, and a separate shower. Upstairs you'll find a loft, three generously sized bedrooms, and a full bath. But the real head-turner? The finished walk-out basement-a complete second living quarters with its own full kitchen (wet bar with fridge, dishwasher, range), massive living space, full bathroom, and two flexible rooms, including one with a window that could serve as a 5th bedroom, perfect for multi-generation living. And don't forget the rare, finished 3-car garage, multiple outdoor living spaces, a hot tub, and a flat backyard (rare for a walk-out!) that feels private and peaceful, ready for both quiet mornings and lively gatherings. Opportunities like this in Carmel don't last. Schedule your private showing today before this one slips away!
