Back on market at no fault of seller, this lovingly cared-for 1,944 sq ft tri-level is a true gem in the highly sought-after Munster school system. The home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, with freshly refinished hardwood floors in the bedrooms and both bathrooms updated with marble floors and surrounds. The eat in kitchen features stainless steel appliances. The lower level offers a cozy family room with a fireplace and a laundry room with a double-bowl utility sink. Peace of mind comes with a one-year-old furnace and A/C and a two-year-old water heater. Outside, you'll find a fenced yard with a concrete patio, irrigation in the front and sides, and a 2.5-car detached garage. The location is close to the new Munster South Shore train station for an easy Chicago commute, as well as shopping, dining, entertainment, and the highway, all with the benefit of low Indiana property taxes. Freshly painted inside and power washed outside, this home is ready for its new owners.
