Rustic Living

The African decor, nature-inspired construction, and even a canoe light fixture hanging from a vaulted ceiling were enough to get Tom and Bryanna Barron’s rustic chic home at 8040 N. St. Joseph Road featured in the May/June 2003 issue of Evansville Living.

Now, the 6,681-square-foot estate is up for sale.

The custom home designed by Jasper, Indiana, architect Rob Flick and built in 2000 by Kenny Kissel is decorated like a wildlife refuge, with animal-centric paintings, mounted antlers, a stone-laden exterior, and carved wood accents. It has three bedrooms, four bathrooms, and two garages that hold up to five cars. The walkout ranch-style home sits on 5.1 gated acres that include a sprawling yard, partially heated driveway, koi pond, fire pit, boat dock, and a private beach overseen from the great room’s floor-to-ceiling windows.

“It’s very tranquil out there,” says Tami Conner, a Realtor with Janice Miller’s team at ERA First Advantage Realty, Inc. “It’s a personal retreat; you feel like you’re on vacation all the time. There is nothing like it around here.”
