Bring your offer!!! Calling all buyers, contractors, and investors who see potential where others see projects. Some pictures are AI generated. See what the potential is when changing out the paint, carpet, laundry room flooring and stainless appliances. This 3-bed, 3-bath ranch home on a 0.77 acre lot in Chesterton is a rare chance to build instant equity in one of Northwest Indiana's most sought-after school districts. The roof is only 1 year old -- one of the biggest-ticket items already handled for you. Beneath the cosmetic wear is a home with genuinely good bones: a solid layout, real square footage (2232= 1st floor + 2232 =unfinished basement), and a floor plan worth restoring rather than replacing. Yes, it needs work -- this is NOT a move-in-ready listing, and it's priced accordingly. But for the right buyer, that's exactly the point. Bring your contractor, your vision, or your renovation loan, and turn this into serious equity in a market where finished homes are commanding a premium. In-ground pool, expansive decking, additional 2 car detached garage at the back of the property. Located minutes from downtown Chesterton, the South Shore Line, and the Indiana Dunes, with access to Duneland Schools -- this is a location buyers don't want to miss, at a price point that leaves room to make it your own.
