Somehow, this southern Indiana house manages to be rustic and elegant at the same time. It has log walls made from original posts, with exposed chinking and a fieldstone hearth with a wood stove.

But not everything in this 2,300 square-foot home is a throwback to the late 1800s. The kitchen has gleaming wooden counters, a walk-in pantry and modern appliances.

The once extensive farm acreage that used to come with the property has been sold off over the years, but the house still sits on a 1.4 acre lot. The backyard has a brick patio and an in-ground pool.

The town of Salem is an agricultural community and less than an hour from Louisville, Ky.
