A vintage hidden gem nestled in a dunelike setting is located within blocks of the Indiana Dunes National State Park and Beach. With so much potential this "one of a kind" home is waiting for a buyer who has imagination and a vision to bring it back to its glory. Being sold "AS IS" this home offers a large screened-in porch surrounded by dunes, a see thru fireplace, knotty pine walls, an open floor plan combining the living room and kitchen, two nice size bedrooms, a generous walk-in closet for its time and a bath with walk-in shower. The stairs leading up from the basement have a unique design, the design is a half-threads alternating stair thread pattern. Whether a second home or a full time residence, the convenience of having the Dunes Park Railroad Station within a couple of miles that offers transportation to Chicago is a big plus. Don't forget about the miles of spectacular Indiana Dune beaches.
