Charming Ranch w/Full Basement in a Peaceful Lake Community - Valparaiso, IN. Just across the street from the historic Route 49 Drive-In Theatre! Welcome to this delightful 3-Bedroom (poss. 4th Bed or Office in Basement), 2-Bathroom Ranch Home nestled on a 1/2 acre lot in a peaceful and friendly lake community (Wauhob Lake). With private lake rights, residents enjoy access to a small sandy beach, shared dock, and a lake platform -- perfect for swimming, fishing, or soaking up the sun all summer long! This extremely well-maintained home sits on a solid poured foundation wall -- a significant upgrade from typical 1960s block wall construction. The unfinished basement offers added space and includes several valuable updates: Basement PermaSeal drain system installed (paperwork included), New basement windows (Dec. 2023, paperwork available), New sump pump & ejector pump (April 2025), Water conditioning by Osby, including rented softener & iron curtain system, Well pump replaced in 2020, Yoder Shed (8 years old) provides extra storage, and the Washer and dryer are included. The home's mechanical systems are in great shape: A/C unit (7 years old) and furnace was professionally serviced (Jan. 2025). Roof is approx. only 12 years old. The cozy kitchen features an Reverse Osmosis system connected to the sink and ice machine, with a fresh set of filters ready for replacement in September 2025. Appliances (fridge, oven, microwave) are included and estimated to be 10-15 years old. Located just minutes from downtown Valpo and directly across from the beloved Rt 49 Drive-In, this home offers both tranquility and convenience. Whether you're seeking a year-round residence or a peaceful retreat, this lake-access home is move-in ready and full of potential!
