About This Home
Welcoming and timeless, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath brick ranch sits in the heart of Chesterton. Step inside to a spacious foyer that opens seamlessly into the living and dining areas, with beautiful refinished hardwood floors in 2022, sets of French doors, and large windows that flood the space with natural light. The kitchen is both functional and stylish, offering plenty of cabinet and counter space, quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, newer stainless steel appliances, and a coffee bar along with a modern sink. A spacious unfinished basement, already plumbed with a toilet and utility sink, adds endless potential for storage or finishing. Outside, you'll find a newer roof, front porch, and walk (2019), professional landscaping, a roomy garage, and an electric-ready shed. Located close to schools, restaurants, breweries, boutiques, and just minutes from the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore and South Shore Train Station, this home combines everyday convenience with small-town charm.
