This meticulously maintained ranch home offers 2,468 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The location is fantastic, just minutes away from major expressways, Purdue University Northwest, the Erie-Lackawana Trail(spanning from downtown Hammond to Crown Point) and the "Destination YMCA". Inside, you'll find a thoughtful main floor layout featuring a spacious living room and an eat-in kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a new Bosch dishwasher and GE oven (both from 2024), ceramic tile flooring, and dark cabinetry. The main level also benefits from new carpeting, and it's worth noting that there are original hardwood floors underneath in excellent condition should you prefer that option. The finished basement expands the living space significantly with a large rec room, a den that could easily function as a fourth bedroom, a full bathroom, and a separate laundry and storage room. Outside, the fenced backyard creates a wonderful private retreat with a concrete patio and beautiful flowers and greenery. The property also includes a 2-car detached garage with a newer Chamberlain garage door opener and alley access. For added peace of mind, the roof and gutters were replaced in 2024, and the A/C unit was replaced in 2020.
