(Vevay, Ind.) - Kat Von D is best known for her work as a tattoo artist.
She will soon be known as a Hoosier.
The television star, entrepreneur, and model recently purchased the Schenck Mansion in Vevay for $1,550,000. The home was listed by Lohmiller Real Estate for $1,874,000.
The historic home was built in 1874 and features a four-story tower, widow watcher attic with three round dormer, four porches, seven balconies, seven bedrooms, six bathrooms, eight chimneys, 13 fireplaces, 50+ windows, 35 rooms, and more.
Schenck mansion has approximately 8,000-square-feet of space and sits on 10.6 acres. The house, which is individually listed on the National Register of Historic Places, was restored in 2000 and has since operated as a bed and breakfast.
For Von D, the home will be a place to enjoy retirement and to raise her son.
In the meantime, Von D will continue operating her shop in Los Angeles.
She says her family "will eventually be spending more time in beautiful Indiana once I finish doing some remodeling on our new historic house."
