If you are looking for an affordable truly move-in ready home in the heart of Valparaiso, then you owe it to yourself to check this out. The modern comfort of today really does meet the charm of yesteryear in this 3 BR, 1.5 BA totally updated gem. The renovated kitchen with its stainless steel appliances, tile floor, & soapstone counters, flows directly in to the sun filled living room which has large windows & a lovely bamboo floor. The primary BR & 2nd BR are on the main floor, and both have hardwood floors & ceiling fans. The main bathroom has been updated to fit today's needs. The finished basement offers a nice size family room, along with an additional 8' x 8' nook which would be great as an office or work out area. The 3rd BR (with an egress window), 1/2 bath, and storage/laundry area (washer & dryer included), finish the basement level. There is a charming 14' x 10' attached finished breezeway/3 seasons room off of the kitchen which would be perfect for your morning coffee. The 2.5 car garage is 25' deep allowing space for tinkering, or pursuing hobbies. The double city lot (94 x 128) offers plenty of room for additional gardens, a pool, and entertaining. A nearby neighborhood park is just down the road. This home is just moments to downtown Valparaiso. Don't let its size fool you because it's true when they say that the best things come in small packages.
