At a price that keeps homeownership within reach, this is a smart, comfortable place to land. Sweet, tidy, and inviting, this will feel like home, the moment you step inside. The easy layout makes every square foot count, with living spaces that flow naturally and a practical arrangement that suits everyday routines without wasted space. The clean, move-in-ready feel means you can unpack, settle in, and start enjoying the home instead of starting a project list. Low-maintenance living and a sensible price point make this one an easy decision, whether as a primary residence or a smart investment close to campus. Outside, you’ll find something increasingly hard to come by in town: a lot with a little elbow room. The yard offers space to plant a garden, gather around a fire pit on cool fall evenings, or simply enjoy the outdoors, with room to add your own touches over time, whether that’s a patio or raised beds. The garage adds valuable storage for seasonal gear, tools, and outdoor equipment, plus space for weekend projects and hobbies. The location is every bit as practical as the home itself. Notre Dame is just minutes away, putting game days, concerts, and campus events close at hand, while shopping, dining, groceries, and daily errands are all nearby. You get the convenience of being near everything without giving up the comfort of a place that feels like your own retreat at the end of the day. Well-priced homes with this kind of yard space don’t come along often, and they rarely linger long once they hit the market. Some homes simply feel right the moment you pull in, and this is one of those. Schedule your private showing today!
