Property Description
This house will not pass for a conventional, FHA or VA loan. Classic charm meets endless potential in this spacious 5-bedroom home situated on an impressive 128' x 700' wooded lot in Beach Park, just minutes from Lake Michigan. Built in 1925, this home showcases original hardwood floors, hardwood doors, quality wood windows, high ceilings, generous room sizes, and a traditional floor plan filled with character. The spacious living room features a brick fireplace, while the large dining room and kitchen provide ample space for everyday living and entertaining. Major updates include a Trane X80 furnace (2017), premium Owens Corning roof installed within the last 10 years, Honeywell thermostat, and a new sump pump (2024). The home is served by Beach Park water and sewer and also has a permitted private well for outdoor use. Included appliances feature Samsung refrigerators, Kenmore range, dishwasher, washer, dryer, and microwave. The unfinished basement offers excellent storage or future finishing possibilities. A concrete pad is already in place for a future two-car garage. Mature trees provide exceptional privacy and a peaceful setting. The extensive inventory of building materials included with the sale, including lumber, plywood, shingles, doors, windows, hardwood flooring, cabinetry, plumbing fixtures, lighting, paint, and additional remodeling materials, offering outstanding value for future improvements. The seller believes the property may have subdivision potential, subject to Beach Park Village approval. Buyers are encouraged to verify all zoning, subdivision possibilities, and intended uses with the Village. A rare opportunity to own a character-filled home on an oversized wooded lot with tremendous potential in a desirable Beach Park location. See owner's notes attached for more information
