4400 Silver Shale Ln, Lafayette, INUnion Township | Shadeland Zoning | 19 +- Acres | Tippecanoe School Corporation

Discover a rare opportunity in the highly desirable Flint Creek Estates. Lot 14 is the largest parcel in the entire development, offering an impressive 19 +- acres of privacy, natural beauty, and premium buildable potential. Estate sized lots like this combining acreage, location, and seclusion are nearly impossible to find in the Lafayette/West Lafayette area.

This tract features a blend of mature hardwoods, 6 +- acres of tillable farmland (currently rented year-to-year with no written contract), and a picturesque landscape offering potential building locations. The mix of timber and open ground makes this an excellent setting for a custom home, outbuildings, fruit orchard, or simply enjoying the abundance of wildlife and hunting opportunities the property offers.

The parcel has strong potential to be buildable, and the buyer will be responsible for completing all required permits, evaluations, and approvals necessary for residential construction as per local regulations. Underground electric is available at the curb, while a well, septic system, and propane tank will be needed for future utilities.

A small creek separates the road frontage from the primary buildable areas. A future owner will need to construct a culvert or bridge to access the interior portion of the property. Buyers should complete their own due diligence with the county, engineers, and contractors to determine specific requirements and feasibility for installing a crossing.
