800 feet off of a county road in west-central Porter County you'll find an estate like none other. This Valparaiso home resting upon its 6+ acre wooded lot features over 6,000 square feet of space. Step inside to be greeted at a wide foyer looking forward to the living room with a fireplace. To one side is a formal dining room and at the other side two of the seven (yes, seven) bedrooms each with a full-ensuite bathroom and fireplace. Straight back from the front door is a glass-enclosed four-seasons room looking over the natural habitat of an old growth forest in your backyard. The kitchen features ample workspace, commercial grade appliances, and a country kitchen feeling. A mud room with half-bathroom and laundry completes the main floor. Upstairs discover four more of the bedrooms each, again, with a full-ensuite bathroom and a fireplace. Then, a fifth bedroom currently used as a spa set-up. The walk-out basement for possible related living features a second kitchen, a second laundry room, the seventh bedroom with a full ensuite bathroom, and a recreation room with walk-out access to the flagstone patio. The home's unfinished attic and some space in the basement provide excellent storage. The detached 3-car garage and it's unfinished attic provides opportunities for more space or an accessory dwelling unit. This home is located 1-hour from The Loop, is 10 minutes west of downtown Valparaiso, and 20 minutes east of Crown Point. Located in the Union Twp. School district. Seven bedrooms. Eight bathrooms. Seven fireplaces. More than 6,000 square feet on over six wooded acres. Some homes are measured by their square footage. This one is measured by the experience it creates. Grand in scale yet warm in character, this is more than a home--it's a private retreat designed for generations of memories. Properties of this caliber are exceptionally rare, making this a truly once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Or, just start a B&B because that's what this is today.
