Former bishop's Indiana home with private chapel hits market for $1.28m

For nearly a century, an Indiana family has owned a historic property that once served as the residence of a Catholic bishop and features an elaborate private chapel. Once bought at auction in 2016, the family spent nine years restoring the historic home, bringing back many of its original features. The property, built in 1910, was later used by two bishops as a residence, before transforming into a center for drug addiction recovery, a monk residence, and eventually ending as a private home.

The most striking feature of the property is its private chapel, which was added in 1935 and boasts rose marble pillars, ornate plaster ceilings, stained glass, and Italian murals. The family is now preparing to sell the property for $1.28 million as they transition into a new phase of life.
