Welcome to classic design with touches of trend, style that stands the test of time. Unincorporated Valparaiso and 15 min from the beach! This home is situated on its 1.25 wooded acre lot to take advantage of the views. It is located on a cul-de-sac and stating it's quiet would be an understatement. Upon entering the home you are greeted with soaring 22ft cathedral ceilings extending through the living area and windows galore. The primary bedroom, located on the main floor, features 18ft ceilings that extend into the primary bath which include double sinks, a separate shower, jacuzzi tub and walk-in closet. There are 9ft ceilings in the remainder of the main floor including the kitchen, dining room, sunroom, half bath and laundry room. A loft, 2 bedrooms and full bath are located upstairs and in the walk-out basement, which also has 9ft ceilings, there is a large finished space that includes a family room, exercise/music room, full bath, 4th bedroom, furnace room and storage area. Nature lovers be prepared for breathtaking views of the woods and the creek whether it be from the backyard patio or the 3-story deck located on the side of the home directly facing the woods. There is a quaint garden fence enclosing the backyard area that has a large patio, rock area as well as a large mulched area for the doggies. The three story deck located on the side of the home is nothing short of spectacular with its views and landscape. Whether you are entertaining or relaxing after a hard day, it is the perfect spot. Everyone who visits is taken aback by the beauty and the tranquility of these surroundings. This home has been well maintained. There is extensive landscaping throughout the property, no projects for you! Some upgrades include a dual on-demand Navien water heater so you will never run out of hot water, water softener, reverse osmosis, newer reinforced concrete driveway with parking pad, hickory floors, plumbing and fixtures, lighting, well pump, and much more.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
