538 Melcher Avenue

Property Description

This is your chance to live right next to the Portage Lakes lifestyle--without the lakefront price tag. Nestled on a quiet street, 538 Melcher Ave is only a short walk (we mean really short) to the water, restaurants, boat launches, and all the local spots that make this area so special. Inside, this cozy bungalow offers an incredibly functional layout with 3 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a warm, welcoming feel throughout. The living spaces are thoughtfully arranged to make everyday living easy--whether you're hosting friends or just winding down at home. The kitchen is light, bright, and full of potential, featuring clean cabinetry, a great layout for cooking or entertaining, and room to add your own personal touches. It connects effortlessly to the main living areas, making it easy to stay in the flow whether you're prepping meals or just grabbing a quick bite before heading out to the lake. Out back, you'll find a fully fenced backyard--a great spot for pets, play, or putting in a garden. There's also a 1-car garage offering extra storage space and off-street parking. And the best part? The location. You're only minutes (walking!) from Portage Lakes--known for its boating, paddleboarding, kayaking, fishing, and vibrant lakefront dining scene. This is a community where weekends feel like vacation, and you don't need to live on the lake to enjoy everything it offers. Priced at just $174,900, this home is a rare find for the area. Whether you're buying your first home, downsizing, or looking for a smart investment close to the water, 538 Melcher Ave checks the boxes.
Come see it for yourself--and discover how close lake living really can be.
