About this House

Whether you're a first time home buyer looking for a home that will cost you far less than rent, or you're an investor looking for a move-in ready home (all you need are appliances), then this can be the opportunity you're looking for! This neutrally painted home features 2 bedrooms, a remodeled full bath, a good sized living room and an eat-in kitchen (this is also where the washer and dryer would be located). Plus, vinyl sided exterior, vinyl windows and a nice size back yard with no neighbors behind! You'll appreciate the easy access to Route 20 and major highways and close proximity to Miller Beach/Lake Michigan. I might also mention a short distance to the South Shore Line for the commute to Chicago or as far east as South Bend, IN. For first time home buyers, if you qualify, you can purchase this home with as little as 3% down plus closing costs, and have a mortgage payment that is incredibly low with low taxes too! Call for more details and hurry before this home is gone!
