About This Home

As of May 2025

Discover the perfect blend of country living and convenience in this spacious home! Perfectly tucked into almost 2 acres, this home has room to roam, inside and outside, while being within minutes of shopping, highways and downtown Valparaiso! With over 5700 square feet of living space, this home has something for everyone! A classic colonial on the outside, but updated and open on the inside. Just a few steps from the front entrance, the main living area impressively opens up to reveal the kitchen, great room, dining area and sunroom. This is truly the heart of the home - you can cozy up to the fireplace and watch tv or host large gatherings for the upcoming holidays. If that's not impressive enough, multiple large windows bring nature right inside from the back yard. Mature trees provide the feel of a secluded retreat with plenty of open space for any outdoor hobbies! An entrance from the backyard to the mudroom/laundry room keeps the dirt away from the rest of the house. Back toward the front of the house you will find a half bath and the traditional formal dining and living room (currently used as work from home space). Upstairs you will find the main bedroom ensuite with a walk-in closet and two additional closets to store clothes for all seasons. The main bath is replete with soaking tub, separate shower, and double sink vanity. There are 4 more seriously large bedrooms (another hard to find feature), an office or hobby room, and a loft area complete with built-in bookcases and cozy nooks to explore. The lower level basement rec room boasts enough space for an entertainment area, pool table/game area or future bar if you wish. You can keep your garage free to park cars thanks to the built-in equipment garage with an overhead door for the lawn tractor and other outdoor equipment. Seller's are motivated and priced to sell!
