Welcome to 2212 Ballard School Rd in LaGrange, a spectacular custom-built log estate set on 16 private acres with breathtaking views of woods and pasture in every direction. Tucked ¼ mile off the main road, this property offers exceptional privacy while still being just minutes from LaGrange shopping, dining, and I-71. Step inside to a breathtaking great room defined by a dramatic 2.5-story vaulted ceiling and an expansive A-frame wall of windows that fills the space with sunlight and captures sweeping views of the peaceful surroundings. Extraordinary, handcrafted stone masonry anchors the room with a beautiful fireplace and continues throughout both the interior and exterior of the home, highlighting the craftsmanship of this one-of-a-kind property. Acacia wood floors run through the entry, great room, kitchen, and primary suite, adding warmth and character. The first-floor primary suite offers a relaxing retreat with a trey ceiling, sitting area, dual walk-in closets, and private deck overlooking the rear property. The spacious bath includes dual vanity, large tub and walk in shower creating a comfortable and functional layout. Designed for everyday living and entertaining, the kitchen opens to the dining and living areas and includes an oversized pantry, mudroom, and convenient laundry access with direct entry to the oversized two-car garage. Built-in speakers enhance both the kitchen and outdoor deck spaces. Off the dining area, a large deck provides the perfect setting for enjoying the surrounding countryside. Upstairs, you'll find four generously sized bedrooms, including one with a private balcony overlooking the front of the property and another with an en-suite bath. The upper level also features a loft and an additional full bathroom. The finished walkout lower level offers additional living and entertaining space, featuring a bar area and a beautifully crafted hearth with a wood stove, along with doors that open to the rear patio and outdoor gathering area. An additional 1,600+ square feet of unfinished basement provide excellent expansion potential, including two framed and electrically wired rooms ready to be finished and plumbing already installed for a future basement bathroom. Outdoor living is equally impressive with five patios and decks, including the private primary suite balcony. The property also features an outdoor firepit, stone pizza oven, outdoor grilling area, deer stands, dog kennels, and even an ATV included with the property, making the acreage a true outdoor playground. Recent improvements include newly stripped and resealed logs along the rear of the home and rebuilt balcony railings. The home is also equipped with dual geothermal heat pump systems and a whole-house Culligan water filtration system with separate drinking water filtration including a new water heater (2025). With 16 acres of rolling land, partial woods, expansive views, and unmatched privacy, this extraordinary property offers the perfect blend of rustic elegance, modern efficiency, and convenient location. A rare opportunity to own this one-of-a-kind property that offers privacy, character, and incredible craftsmanship while still being conveniently located near LaGrange amenities.
