Once inside, you will be delighted by the beautiful hardwood floors, wood trim and the built-ins of the living, family and dining rooms. The kitchen boasts a large butcher block island, wood floors, a generously sized pantry and includes all appliances. The tiledmudroom, with convenient access to the two car oversized garage, and half bathroom complete the main floor. Up the stairs you will find the primary bedroom and ensuite bathroom, a delightful respite filled with natural light and two closets for ample storage. Two additional bedrooms, a convenient laundry room and a dual vanity bathroom top off the upstairs. This home is a splendid place to experience small town living while still being close to all the amenities Valparaiso and the National Lakeshore & Park have to offer!
