1102 E 2nd St, Union Mills, IN 46382

This is a very unique property in a quiet, desirable area. This beautiful home sits on a half-acre corner lot with an additional acre available for purchase. Situated between Valparaiso & LaPorte, we have easy access to Chicago, South Bend, and Southern Michigan. Enjoy our quiet country evenings on one of three deck areas, while enjoying the beautifully maintained landscaping/lawn made beautiful with 18 years of Tru-Green service. The home's classy interior boasts a unified design reflecting a Tuscan color palate inspired by the owners' travels. Much larger on the inside than it appears from the road, this home was designed for entertaining friends and family. The largest of 2 family living areas (432sq ft) is highlighted by a cathedral ceiling, full wood-burning masonry fireplace, a large bow window, and a second staircase to a future (currently unfinished) 18'x24' basement recreation/man-cave area. This 1st family space features a large entry and closet next to a game-table area. This space flows into the family living area which is open to a spacious formal dining room and formal living room/parlor (384sq ft). Off these rooms is a staircase to 2 possible upstairs bedrooms (or a bedroom and an office/nursery), 2 large closets, and a half bath. An oak hardwood walkway connects the kitchen to the dining room and front family area. The kitchen is adorned with solid oak cabinetry on all four walls - tons of storage! Next, an island with a salad sink that matches the diagonal kitchen sink - both sinks have disposers. Newer high-quality appliances complete this prep space. A handy pantry next to the refrigerator, as well as the second, "Summer Kitchen" around the corner (insulated from the rest of the house) provide vast amounts of additional storage and make this area the perfect place for baking or preparing large dinners (without heating up the rest of the house). A 2nd family room (12'x24') off of the kitchen (complete with a family breakfast area and two entrances) is well-lit by its two round-topped windows and the new skylight in its vaulted ceiling. Off the kitchen is a hallway which leads to the main floor full bath with a large linen closet, the laundry room with newer front-load washer and dryer and built-in storage cabinetry, and the master bedroom (12'x16') with a large closet and a single French door to the deck. The 2nd family room off the kitchen also contains the 2nd stairway to the basement and a finished ¾ bath with shower. The roof was new in 2015 and most appliances are less than 3 years old. You’ll love the easily-accessible attic storage and lighted crawl area. This home also has freshly stained cedar siding/trim.
