Open Houses
A true 1915 American Foursquare with exceptional privacy, set on 3.61 beautifully landscaped acres surrounded by mature tree lines. Original hardwood floors extend through nearly the entire house complemented by beautifully preserved woodwork, doors, built-ins, banister, and a restored leaded-glass china cabinet. The updated kitchen features cherry cabinetry and granite countertops, and the family room showcases a handsome limestone fireplace. The home includes 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with an expansive primary suite featuring a walk-in closet and private bath, updated bathrooms, and a convenient main-level powder room. The unfinished basement provides abundant storage. Outdoors, enjoy the open, level backyard, stamped-concrete patio, original covered storage barn, and a path through the trees leading to a young apple and pear orchard. The 54' x 36' insulated pole barn is ideal for a business, serious hobbyist, car enthusiast, or collector, with its own 200-amp electrical service, water, forced-air heating and central air, reinforced concrete floor, large overhead and sliding doors, and abundant 20-amp outlets throughout. Inside, a finished 17' x 14' sound-isolated office features staggered-stud walls, mineral wool insulation, its own ductless mini-split for heating and cooling, recessed lighting, and wired Ethernet, making it a quiet, ready-to-use studio or workspace. Located in the Valparaiso Community Schools district, including Heavilin Elementary, and just minutes from downtown Valparaiso, this one-of-a-kind property combines historic charm, room to spread out, and small-town convenience.
