Oswego Lakeside Estate

Description

Memories are ready to be made at this Indiana lake and riverside paradise. This property has been reserved as a family estate for eight decades and is now available for the next family’s compound or to be divided into multiple waterfront properties.

With nearly 1,400 feet of clear waterfront on Oswego Lake and the Tippecanoe River, with wide channel access to Tippecanoe Lake (Indiana’s deepest lake) and James Lake (“Little Tippy”), this property is the perfect year-round residence or home away from home.

The headwaters of the Tippecanoe River are off the shore of the property, resulting in a constant current and truly pristine water clarity, allowing anyone to see well below the surface to the river and lakeshore bottoms. The expansive property allows for all types of water sport recreation, from tranquil and uninterrupted canoe and kayak trips, sailing, pleasure boating or water skiing, as well as angling for a diverse population of fresh water fish, from Northern Pike to Bluegill. Nothing says “summer” like safely jumping and swimming off a dock, raft, or pontoon in these beautiful waters.

The property is surrounded by water on three sides and Oswego Lake Cemetery on the fourth. It is driveable to downtown Warsaw, Indiana, and the Warsaw Municipal Airport (10–15 minutes), as well as nearby major cities: Fort Wayne, Indiana (1 hour); Indianapolis (2.5 hours); Chicago (2.5 hours); and Bloomington, Indiana (3.5 hours).
