DON'T LET THE FRONT VIEW FOOL YOU--THIS HOUSE IS HUGE! Tucked inside the highly sought-after Bridgewood Subdivision, this sprawling Merrillville ranch delivers nearly 5,000 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and room for just about everything. Walk inside and the space keeps going. Hardwood floors flow through the main living areas, where you'll find a beautiful fireplace, large windows, multiple spaces to gather and entertain, a spacious kitchen with tons of cabinetry and counter space, and a primary suite with its own private bath and walk-in closet. And then there's the basement. This is not your average lower level. An enormous finished recreation area plus additional rooms give you endless possibilities--movie room, home gym, office, game room, playroom, hobby space...or all of the above. With nearly 5,000 square feet, you don't have to choose. Outside is just as impressive, with a beautifully maintained lawn, mature landscaping, covered patio, generous driveway and attached garage. Big house. Beautiful neighborhood. Incredible amount of space. Homes this size--especially ranches--in Bridgewood don't come along every day. Come see just how much house is hiding behind that front door.
