Step into South Bend history with this character-filled American Foursquare brick home, once the longtime residence of former Mayor Edward “Babe” Voorde during the late 1950s. Located across from the Studebaker National Museum, the home features spacious rooms, original woodwork, hardwood floors, leaded glass windows, and large wood pocket doors. The main level offers a generous living room, formal dining room with an attractive chandelier, den/office, large kitchen with butler’s pantry, a covered front porch, and a rear screened porch overlooking the yard. Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms and a full bath plus an extra separate lavatory. The lower level includes a recreation room, full bath, and storage room. A large walk-up attic provides excellent storage and potential for additional living space. Outside, enjoy a detached three-car garage, a large lot, and an additional side yard fronting Jefferson Boulevard. Property consists of two parcels; acreage and taxes reflect the combined totals. American Home Shield SHIELD PLUS home warranty included. Square feet and measurements are approximate. Buyer verify school assignments.
