Looking for a home with a story to tell? Welcome to 115 E. Wolcott Street in Wolcottville, where 19th-century history meets 21st-century comfort. This one-of-a-kind timber-frame home was originally built around 1844 by one of Elkhart County’s earliest Amish settlers. Nearly 180 years later, the entire frame was carefully deconstructed… Read More in 2023 and given new life on a brand-new foundation by the renowned Levi Wickey of L&M Reclaiming. The result? A home that looks like it’s stepped out of history but lives like it was built yesterday. Step inside and you’re greeted by hand-treated, exposed timber beams and reclaimed wood paneling set exactly as it was in the original home-horizontal on exterior walls, vertical on interior walls. Narrow red oak floors, salvaged and re-milled from the original house, shine beneath your feet and pair beautifully with antique doors and maple stair treads. The distressed alder cabinetry in the kitchen, made by Clear Waters Cabinetry, is warm and inviting, complemented by custom countertops from Countertops Plus. On a chilly evening, you can cozy up by the Jotul wood-burning stove, which anchors the main living space with a rustic yet refined glow. Every detail blends heritage with modern ease. The main-floor bath features a corner shower for convenience, while the upstairs bath boasts a luxurious Japanese soaking tub, perfect for unwinding. A charming primitive corner cabinet just outside the main bath offers a nod to simpler times with a practical twist. Behind the historic beauty is a solid new build. You’ll find thermally modified southern yellow pine siding from Arbor Wood Co., a new metal roof by Troyer Roofing & Remodeling with seamless gutters, energy-efficient Sunrise windows, and 1-inch closed-cell foam plus R-21fiberglass insulation, topped with 16 inches of cellulose in the attic. The home runs on an electric HVAC system with upstairs mini-splits, and all plumbing and electrical were completed new by AJ’s Plumbing & Electric. The 12-inch concrete foundation walls were specially poured to cradle the original 12-inch sill beams and provide a 9-foot-tall basement ceiling with an exterior cellar entry by Flying Eagle Concrete. Add in reclaimed red oak flooring, a Berber-carpeted den, porcelain-tiled baths, and you have a home that’s as warm and welcoming as it is historic and efficient. This is more than a place to live, it’s a chance to own a living piece of Indiana history, beautifully rebuilt for today’s lifestyle. Read Less
