This charming 1,985 square foot home, built in 1924, blends historic character with thoughtful updates while sitting just two and a half blocks north of Lincolnway near the heart of downtown Valparaiso. Many original details remain, including beautiful hardwood floors in several rooms that were refinished in 2020 and classic French doors separating the formal dining room from the living room, echoing the craftsmanship of the era. The kitchen offers both a cozy breakfast table and additional seating at a counter with two tall stools, making it a warm and functional gathering space. An updated electric fireplace brings modern comfort to the living area, while both bedrooms feature new ceiling lights with fans. The fenced backyard sits beside a two car garage with off street parking, adding convenience and privacy. The basement extends the living space with two finished rooms--one used as a family room and the other as a recreation room ideal for entertaining--along with a laundry area and a half bath. For anyone wanting to live close to the vibrant downtown scene, this inviting home may be exactly what you've been searching for.
