About This Home
Historic Charm Meets Modern Comfort Step into a timeless piece of La Porte history with this beautifully preserved and thoughtfully updated 4-5 bedroom, 2-bath home located in the heart of town. Built in 1859 by Louis Schumm, founder of the LaPorte Door and Sash Company, this landmark residence seamlessly blends old-world craftsmanship with modern conveniences. From the moment you enter, you'll be captivated by the home's abundant character -- a grand, winding open staircase, solid interior doors, intricate original woodwork, leaded glass windows, and charming built-ins all speak to the quality and care of a bygone era. A rare rear servant's staircase adds to the historical intrigue, while spacious rooms throughout provide comfort and flexibility for today's lifestyle. The main level features a large formal dining room with a built-in china cabinet, a bedroom perfect for guests or a home office, and an inviting eat-in kitchen with an island ideal for casual gatherings. Recent updates include all-new carpet and fresh paint throughout, making this home truly move-in ready. Enjoy outdoor living on the classic front porch or the expansive rear wraparound deck overlooking the generous corner lot. A 3-car heated garage offers ample space for vehicles, hobbies, or storage year-round. Newer roof, boiler, garage and sewer line, extremely well-maintained and rich in La Porte heritage, 216 B Street offers a rare opportunity to own one of the city's oldest and most distinguished homes. Don't miss your chance to become a part of its story. Schedule your private tour today!
