Awaken each morning to birdsong and the whisper of wind through towering hardwoods. Tucked between Chesterton and Valparaiso on scenic County Road 700 N, this 4.3acre estate (two contiguous parcels) delivers the rare blend of wideopen meadows, oldgrowth woods, and dramatic glacial ravines that frame a seasonal vista of 21acre Lake Wauhob. The 1930 main cottage offers three bedrooms and an airy kitchen / dining / living hub ready for your personal touch, while a detached 3car garage, vintage poultry coop, and fenced animal pens invite hobby farming or serious homesteading. An adjoining oneacre parcel holds a classic farmhouse and pole barn--ripe for restoration or a brandnew build. Whether you reimagine, renovate, or rebuild, you'll claim a frontrow seat to Northwest Indiana's celebrated Chain of Lakes wildlife corridor--minutes to Meridian Rd, IN49, Valpo's vibrant downtown, and South Shore rail access to Chicago. Come explore the possibilities!
