Tucked into the rolling topography of the Valparaiso Moraine, this 2.28-acre property delivers genuine rural privacy just minutes from downtown Valparaiso—with the flexibility and independence of HOA-free living. Towering mature oaks frame a quiet natural sanctuary featuring open lawns, a sliver of frontage on Pepper Creek, and a half-acre pond that serves as a vibrant magnet for local wildlife. The architecture feels rooted in its surroundings. An expansive multi-gabled roofline, brick construction, and cedar accents define the front elevation, while a substantial multi-tiered rear deck provides the perfect vantage point overlooking the water and sweeping southern exposures. Inside, the home offers more than 3,250 finished square feet, complemented by a 2,133-square-foot unfinished basement ready for future expansion. A vaulted entry leads into a soaring two-story great room anchored by a masonry brick fireplace. The main level is designed for everyday comfort, featuring separate living and dining spaces, an open kitchen with an eat-in breakfast nook, and a primary suite complete with a soaking tub and double vanity. Upstairs, you will find two well-proportioned bedrooms alongside a generous flex room suited for a private studio or home office. This home is well built and faithfully maintained by a single owner—a foundation of care that provides exceptional structural integrity. It will appeal directly to the buyer looking to secure rare acreage, exceptional bones, and a truly singular setting, ready to be tailored to their own vision for years to come. Don't miss this incredible opportunity to own an estate-scale retreat just minutes from top schools and the very best of Valpo! Property to be sold AS-IS. Note that seller has used functional well; city water is available for hook-up at the property. All measurements to be verified.
