This open-concept home is situated on a double lot in a well-established neighborhood in downtown Chesterton. It is conveniently located within walking distance to the future YMCA campus, five city parks, downtown shops, and restaurants. The home features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, offering ample living space.
