This well-maintained ranch home offers symmetry, flow, and balance, with a split-bedroom floorplan and room for future expansion in the stubbed in basement. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath home mixes both private and public spaces well incorporating a large Primary Suite with a full attached bathroom and beautiful backyard views. The adjacent laundry area adds convenience which flows into the open living, dining, kitchen and 4-Seasons Room. The additional two main level bedrooms are opposite the Primary bedroom and share their own full common bath. The kitchen includes all appliances, is spacious, and features a dine-in option. Both HVAC system and roof are new (May 2026). The 2 plus car attached garage has a ceramic tiled side entrance into the main level with an L-shaped stairway down to the huge and tall unfinished basement with roughed in bathroom and further space to be reimagined if the desire is there. The property is landscaped with a private fenced back yard and is close to town parks, bike & walking trails, schools, town, and our beloved Lake Michigan shoreline beaches. Commuter rail lines are also nearby with final destinations to both Chicago and South Bend via the South Shore Line.
