Listing Description

Step inside a piece of Chesterton history, where more than a century of character blends beautifully with timeless updates. Nestled in the heart of Chesterton, this is the kind of home that simply can't be recreated. Walking through the front door, the foyer greets you with original woodwork all around and three directions to explore, including a sitting room that flows into the adjacent living and dining room.

Oak and birch hand-sculpted hardwood flooring complements the home's original character. The updated kitchen features white cabinetry, quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances, with a view into the rustic-inspired enclosed screened porch and backyard.

Going up either set of hardwood stairs, you will find a primary suite rarely expected in a home of this era, featuring a beautiful tiled walk-in shower and a spacious walk-in closet. There are 2 more generously sized bedrooms and an updated full bathroom with a timeless look.

The 23x13 enclosed back porch extends your living space, making it the perfect place to spend mornings and evenings enjoying the sights and sounds of nature. Outside, beautifully established landscaping and an abundance of flowers create a setting as special as the home.

An oversized 2-car detached garage also offers additional storage above. Major updates include approximate ages of: roof 2 yrs, water heater 4 yrs, and furnace & A/C 9 yrs. The 1,028 sq. ft. unfinished basement has the Nova waterproofing system, allowing for even more possibilities and potential additional living space.

All appliances included! Enjoy a short walk to downtown Chesterton, a walking path leading to Bailly Elementary, and a short drive to Indiana Dunes National Park and Lake Michigan. A home filled with history, character and a story ready for its next chapter. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a home of this era that has been beautifully updated.
