About This Home

As of July 2025

Celebrate the summer in your own 3 bedroom ALL BRICK ranch with 24x24 garage, fenced yard and FULL BASMENT. Located in the heart of Munster right on one of the bike paths and within walking distance to the new South Shore train station. Superbly maintained, you'll find the roof and mechanicals to be in excellent condition, replacement windows in the kitchen, living and dining rooms and don't forget to take note of the HARDWOOD FLOORS in the bedrooms. Primary suite has private access to one of the baths. Fully equipped kitchen accommodates dine in option or step aside and grab a bite in the formal dining area. Roughly two thirds of the basement is finished, huge family room for family gatherings. Washer and dryer are included when you're checking out the unfinished side and don't miss the extra closet storage and poured basement walls. While you're outside checking out the 1/4 acre lot, you're going to love the fish pond with waterfall adjacent to the patio area. There is a locked gate behind the garage that leads right to the bike path. All around one of the best homes available close to the 300k price point in Munster. Stop by for a look, we think you'll like what you see.
