About this home
Classic architecture, remarkable space, and an exceptional Downtown Valparaiso location come together in this stately Park Avenue home. Built in the early 1960s with a timeless brick exterior, this two-story residence offers the room, character, and setting that make a home truly memorable. Step through the front door into a welcoming foyer flanked by an oversized living room and an exceptionally spacious main-level bedroom. Continue through the home to a comfortable den and an updated kitchen featuring newer countertops, stainless steel appliances, and updated lighting. An adjoining formal dining room provides an inviting setting for holidays, celebrations, and evenings with family and friends, while a full bathroom completes the main level. Upstairs, space is the defining feature. Four additional bedrooms are remarkably large--these are the kind of generously proportioned rooms rarely found in newer homes. A second full bathroom serves the upper level. And there is still more. The unfinished basement provides approximately 1,100 additional square feet, offering tremendous potential for recreation space, a home gym, workshop, storage, or whatever best fits your vision. Outside, enjoy a deep, level backyard with plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden, or play. Best of all is the location. Just five blocks from Lincolnway, you'll be remarkably close to the restaurants, shops, events, parks, and energy that make Downtown Valparaiso such a desirable place to call home. School assignments include Memorial Elementary, Benjamin Franklin Middle School, and Valparaiso High School. Property taxes are without the homestead exemption. As a primary residence the property taxes will decrease meaningfully. With five spacious bedrooms, substantial living areas, a full basement, brick construction, and an outstanding Park Avenue location, this is a distinctive opportunity to own a true Valparaiso classic....
