This fascinating home has everything you could want or need. A foyer is the first area you enter, perfect for all your outdoor items, and then an open floor plan greets you. The living and dining rooms flow into a bright, airy kitchen with a gorgeous backsplash. On the main level, there is a half bathroom, along with a stackable washer and dryer. On the second level, there are two large bedrooms with lovely windows that let in natural light. The second level has a great-sized full bathroom as well. All the rooms upstairs have amazing high vaulted ceilings, including the bathroom! This home offers beautiful landscaping, a deck off the kitchen, a storage shed, and extra parking in the back! This is in a beautiful neighborhood but still very close to Valparaiso's flourishing downtown. That is not all, though it also had a NEW ROOF in 2023 and a NEW FURNACE in 2023!This home will not last long with its location and all it has to offer!
