With an additional lower level bedroom that includes a large closet, and plenty of space to entertain on the main floor or lower level, this is a one of a kind home that you can be proud of. Only a short walk or bike ride to Lake Michigan's sandy beaches, you need to see this spectacular home. Miller Beach is a summer colony and year around community on the eastern edge of Gary, Indiana; offering excellent proximity to major interstates (65, 90/94) and the South Shore Commuter Rail Line (NICTD), which runs several times daily between Miller Beach and Downtown Chicago's Millennium Park Station.
