Historic Indiana Home With Secret Chapel For Sale

A historic Indiana home, originally constructed in 1910, is being prepared for sale by the Patterson family after nine years of dedicated restoration. The property boasts a unique private chapel, an addition from 1935, which features rose marble pillars, ornate ceilings, and imported stained-glass windows.

This remarkable residence has a diverse history, having served as a bishop's residence for the Catholic Diocese of Fort Wayne, a home for monks, and later a center for addiction recovery. The Patterson family purchased the home at auction in 2016 and has since focused on preserving its original character while updating it for modern living.

Now, the family is listing the property for $1,284,000 to pursue more travel opportunities. With only one of their seven children still residing there and seven grandchildren in the extended family, the sale marks a new chapter for the parents, who recently built a home in Fort Myers.
