About This Home
As of September 2023Charming brick home on beautiful Forest Avenue, just a few minutes walk to Miller Beach's sandy beaches. You'll enjoy the elevated three season sunroom with a pleasant, private forest view. Spacious bedrooms, generous closet space, and many cedar closets throughout this home. Hardwood floors throughout. Updated kitchen with a deep sink. Includes a large, open-concept walk-out basement with a bedroom and tons of space and a bathroom (sink, toilet, shower) affording many opportunities for a potential rental, given the separate entryway. Central Heat and Air, New Roof installed in 2022, smart thermostat, and plenty of natural light are all amenities this home offers. Surrounding the Indiana Dunes National Park and minutes from the soon-to-be-completed new NICTD South Shore Train Station and Double Tracking project--shortening the commute time to Downtown Chicago; this is a great home in a fun community on the move.
