Property Description
Hitting the market for the first time ever is this 3 bedroom, 1 bath ranch style home with a dry basement! It's situated on a large .32 acre lot with plenty of room to maybe add a garage, pool, deck, garden beds, extended driveway, etc. The roof was replaced about 3 years ago while much of the home's original character remains in tact for buyers who may be looking to restore, or renovate, more to their taste. It's conveniently located with easy access to the Indiana Toll Road, shopping, schools, parks and everyday amenities.
