Incredible potential awaits your investment into this home that is short-term rental friendly and just blocks from the sandy shores of Lake Michigan. A gardener’s delight with a backyard garden full of perennial flora, a pergola, frog pond with fountain, and large deck from which to enjoy nature and host cookouts. Relax on the front porch with the soothing sounds of a second water feature. Surrounded by woods, you’ll love the tranquil scene and the occasional sighting of horses trotting by. Inside, your improvements will indulge your designer dreams with a vaulted ceiling on the main level anchored by a cozy gas fireplace. Upstairs are three bedrooms and full guest bath. The main bedroom has a private full bath. The oversized garage can house two cars comfortably and still have room for workshop space or storage. Just an hour from Chicago, this home is convenient to southwest Michigan’s wineries, antiquing and natural beauty, and also Michigan City’s art scene, shopping and transit to Chicago.
