About this home
Fully renovated in 2025, this thoughtfully updated Miller Beach home offers the rare opportunity to own a primary residence, second home, weekend retreat, or potential Airbnb/income-producing property just outside of Chicago. Listed at below the seller's appraisal and tucked into a quiet wooded setting near Marquette Park, Miller Beach, and Indiana Dunes National Park, the location blends natural beauty, lakefront lifestyle, and convenient city access. Spend your mornings walking the shoreline, afternoons exploring the dunes and trails, and evenings enjoying the growing energy of the Miller Beach Arts & Creative District with its restaurants, shops, and local events. Whether for personal escape, year-round living, or guest appeal, this is the type of location people seek out in every season. Inside, the home was fully renovated in 2025 with modern finishes and flexible living spaces designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The open-concept main level features waterproof vinyl plank flooring, abundant natural light, stainless steel appliances, breakfast bar seating, and sliding doors leading to an elevated deck surrounded by mature trees. Two main-level bedrooms include a sun-filled primary suite with ensuite bath. The finished lower level offers additional bedrooms, bathroom, and gathering space ideal for guests, recreation, work-from-home use, or expanded hosting potential. Major 2025 improvements include new roof, windows, plumbing, tankless water heater, 200-amp electrical service, and updated mechanicals - allowing for a true move-in-ready experience. Whether you are searching for a peaceful year-round residence, a Chicago-area getaway, or a property with short-term rental possibilities near Lake Michigan and the Indiana Dunes, this home offers lifestyle, flexibility, and opportunity in one of Northwest Indiana's most talked-about beach communities. Easy access to downtown Chicago by car or nearby South Shore Line.
