About This Home

As of November 2023

OPEN HOUSE OCT 22ND 1-3 Get ready for magnificent nature views all around this enchanting oversized wooded lot with deeded access to Lower Long Lake! Located in super quiet & peaceful area just north of W100 N in small community with zero through traffic, this 3 bedroom, 1 bath home features not one but 2 fantastic wood decks where you can kick back, relax & enjoy the zen-like setting. Nestled on a cul-de-sac, this ranch with a basement garage sits beautifully positioned on 3 parcels of land for a total of 2.29 gorgeous acres & all parcels have lake access—so you can have 3 spots for a pier on the 66 acre lake with max depth of 54’ & tons of fishing! Tucked among many tall trees offering shade & privacy, wide gravel driveway provides plenty of parking with attached one car garage in unfinished basement. Steps lead up to both front & back decks; front deck is a bit smaller than back but still has room for lounging & watching the seasons change. Built in 1978, it retains many classic style elements of the period although there have been many structural updates including: mini splits for AC 2023; gutters, garage door & opener 2022; 5 security cameras, 2 sheds, chimney rebuild & SS liner 2018; windows & patio door 2017; front deck & floor vents 2016; washer/dryer, hot water heater & pressure tank 2015; roof 2012; electrical panel 2007—so pretty much only cosmetic updates left to your own personal taste! Front door opens to main great room with cathedral beamed ceiling, panoramic wooded views & floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace to keep you cozy all winter long. Open concept living/dining means meals with a view from sliding glass doors to expansive back deck. Kitchen has everything you need with abundant cabinetry & 2 access points. All 3 bedrooms are comfortably sized with angular ceilings & ample storage throughout (one bedroom has wall of build-ins including desk). Main shared bath has tub/shower combo. Basement is quite large & very clean with cement floors & lots of potential—can be finished as desired, perhaps a 2nd living or rec room (laundry is down here as well as a wood burning stove). Huge yard excellent for all kinds of outdoor fun & activities with a fire pit & free standing shed for all your tools & toys. Another wood shed by garage keeps logs handy in winter. Only 20 minutes to Columbia City with Warsaw & Fort Wayne only a little farther for all your shopping, dining & groceries. Don't miss your chance to own this beautiful property.
