Remarks and Miscellaneous

Public Remarks: Why buy one fully remodeled home when you can own two? Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. Situated on over one acre in Griffith's desirable New Elliott area, this unique property features two separate homes on a single parcel, creating possibilities that are difficult to find anywhere in Northwest Indiana. The primary home offers nearly 1,100 finished square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. A desirable split-bedroom floor plan provides added privacy, while the primary suite includes its own ensuite bathroom. The open-concept living room and kitchen create a bright, inviting space ideal for everyday living and entertaining. A finished laundry room adds convenience and functionality. The second home delivers over 800 finished square feet of additional living space. Inside, you'll find a spacious living room, finished laundry area, and two bedrooms, each featuring its own ensuite bathroom. Whether you're accommodating guests, establishing a work-from-home retreat, looking to generate rental revenue, or exploring other lifestyle possibilities, the flexibility of this second home is a standout feature. Outside, the benefits continue with a large 2-car garage and more than an acre of land, providing room for outdoor entertaining, gardening, recreation, hobbies, or simply enjoying a little more space from neighboring properties. Location matters, and this property delivers. Situated within the highly regarded Lake Central School District in St. John Township, you'll enjoy convenient access to US-30, making travel throughout Northwest Indiana simple. Schererville, Dyer, Highland, shopping, restaurants, and everyday amenities are all just minutes away, while downtown Chicago is approximately 45 minutes from home. Even better, all appliances stay. Fully remodeled, move-in ready, and offering two homes on one property, this is the kind of opportunity that doesn't come along often.
