7401 W 126th Avenue

Hillside ranch on a wooded rise in west Crown Point, and there is more here than the square footage suggests. The living room runs better than twenty feet with windows on two sides and opens straight into a separate dining room, so the main floor lives far larger than a small ranch usually does. The kitchen keeps a gas range, good counter space and a window over the sink. Two bedrooms and a full bath are on the main level, and there is a second full bath downstairs. The lower level carries the laundry, a wood burning stove and a great deal of room to grow into. Outside is where this one separates itself. A wide wood deck steps down to terraced stone garden beds, a covered gazebo, mature oaks and a deep gravel drive with room for everything. The detached 25 by 24 building stands sixteen feet tall and handles the boat, the trailer, the projects, or all three. Work the sellers have already done includes a new furnace and central air, updated electrical, a new water softener and pressure tank, and a sump pit with pump. Natural gas heat, private well, public sewer, no HOA and Crown Point schools. Minutes to Cedar Lake and an easy run to Route 41. Homes on this street rarely come up. Come walk it.
