Overview

Just south of Dillsboro Indiana on State Road 62 lies the historic home and barns of Sleepy Hollow Farms. This property has a host of uses such as farming, hobby farming, timber investment, gardening, hunting, horseback riding, or just as a rural home on acreage for those who want some space. Key features of this property include a load of black walnut trees, 10 +- ac. of pasture or food plot ground, over 4, 300 +- ft of Hayes Branch Creek, no floodplain, and 2, 800 +- ft. of road frontage. The home and barns were built in 1860 but have incredible integrity. The barn has a beautiful massive timber construction and a footprint of 77' x 53' when including the lean-to. It is currently used for woodworking but could easily be converted back to housing cattle or horses. The utility shed is 18' x 20' and currently used as a shop and tool shed. The home itself is +- 1, 996 sq. ft. with 3 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. There is a large fully covered deck on the north side of the home and an additional large deck on the west side of the home. There are multiple gardens with great vegetation currently growing that can show the soil quality. The walnut on the property is at various stages of growth and a lot of it is easily accessible around the edges of the pastures. There is plenty to harvest now and still would have a lot to harvest down the road. Hayes Branch has a stone creek bed and travels several miles. It brings a decent amount of water through the area although it is mostly dry right now. The bed provides so much stone that the original settlers built a stone wall along the length of the creek that is still standing today. Besides the creek bed and pastures, the larger wooded areas are mainly on the north and south ends of the property. At the south end, the hill gradually leads almost all the way to Davies Road. On the north end there is only 1 neighbor on the north and northwest sides. Sleepy Hollow Farms is available for showings by appt. only to pre-qualified buyers.
