Welcome home to this beautifully maintained limestone ranch offering 3,600 finished square feet on a half-acre lot in a desirable north Valparaiso neighborhood on a quiet street ending in a cul-de-sac. Ideally located near the Valparaiso Country Club, YMCA, shopping, dining, and convenient access to the 49 Bypass, this home combines comfort, convenience, and exceptional living space. The main level features a spacious eat-in kitchen with all new stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinetry, a vaulted great room filled with natural light, and a relaxing four-seasons room overlooking the fenced backyard. The primary suite offers vaulted ceilings, an updated bath with tiled walk-in shower, walk-in closet, and private sliding door access to the patio, perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or unwinding at the end of the day. Two additional bedrooms, an updated full bath, and main-floor laundry, including new washer and dryer, complete the main level. The finished basement provides incredible flexibility with a large family room featuring a wood-burning fireplace and wet bar, game area, office, non-conforming fourth bedroom, updated three-quarter bath, playroom, and abundant storage space. Outside, enjoy the privacy of the fenced half-acre lot, mature landscaping, spacious patio, and storage shed. Additional highlights include a Generac whole-house generator and exceptional location near golf, parks, shopping, restaurants, and major commuter routes.
