Overview

Description

DRASTIC price reduction on this classic Michiana home 3 blocks from Lake Michigan- just a 4 minute walk to the beach! Seller MUST SELL and will not refuse any reasonable offer that gets this property sold by the end of the year. One of the last remaining marquee properties of Michiana. Owned by the same family since 1938. Huge corner lot with fully landscaped grounds and mature trees. 5 bedrooms, with an office that could easily be a 6th bedroom. 3 bathrooms with another in basement (with exterior entry) for sandy beach-goers. A well designed and built home that emphasizes family and friends in its concentration on grand entertaining spaces including a large screened-in porch. Knotty pine throughout and exposed beams before they were cool are tastefully represented in this home. Showings are by appointment only. This is a tremendous opportunity to purchase smartly in Michiana Shores. See our video tour on youtube. http://youtu.be/OoS-Oq7yV3s or search 3811 Michiana.
