About This Home
As of August 2025Tucked 1,000 feet off the main road and nestled into the woodlands of revered Suman Valley, this 5-bedroom, 5-bathroom retreat offers exceptional privacy on 2 wooded acres that border a protected wildlife preserve. Surrounded by nature yet just minutes from Valparaiso, Chesterton, and Lake Michigan, this property blends serenity with convenience in one of Northwest Indiana's most sought-after locations. Expansive windows throughout the home frame the surrounding forest, filling each room with soft natural light and peaceful woodland views. From cozy reading nooks to bright, plant-filled corners, every space has been thoughtfully designed with warmth, creativity, and comfort in mind. Original hardwood floors and curated details add timeless character. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with direct access to the large deck, perfect for morning coffee among the trees. The luxurious en-suite bathroom features an oversized shower, double vanity, and a deep, heated whirlpool tub designed for deep relaxation and restoration. The partially finished basement offers high ceilings, brand new flooring, and oversized windows, creating a sunlit, versatile space ideal for an art studio, media room, gym, or additional living area. A newly constructed detached garage expands the property's potential. It features its own heating and cooling, a lofted second level, RV hookups, and a bathroom rough-in. It is ideal for a guest suite, studio, workshop, or private office. Outside, perennial gardens bloom through every season, and mature trees provide beauty and privacy. A whole-house generator and tankless water heater offer efficiency and peace of mind for daily living or hosting gatherings with friends and family. This home is more than a listing. It is an invitation to a new season of life, quiet, creative, and deeply connected to the land.
