A rare opportunity — this is one of East Central Indiana’s most spectacular estates and it’s now completely remodeled! This price is for Lots 5,6,& 7. Built originally in 1938 by Frederick Crapo and his wife, Mildred Kitselman. Frederick became Chief Engineer and CEO of Indiana Steel & Wire.

For its time, the design was Georgian modern and the interior was more eclectic, but today it’s completely updated and mixes modern and traditional. This is 10,918 SqFt of living space, but that doesn’t include the 2196 SqFt of finished space on the lower level but does include 1560 SqFt of finished attic space used as a playroom. This home features 9 bedrooms (currently used in many ways from bedrooms, playrooms, workout spaces, and school rooms) and 8.5 baths. There are 8 fireplaces and just about every other amenity you can ima...
