Secluded Waterfront Building Lot In Lowell, Indiana
5201 175 Th Street Lowell, IN 46356
Description
This 1.54-acre, waterfront building lot is located in a very secluded location, down a private easement in Lowell, Indiana. The property offers a combination of open space, surrounded by trees and nature, with views overlooking a small lake on a County Parks property. With the existing utilities, proximity to community amenities, and property location, it may make an awesome location for a camper, barn, cabin, or a new construction home. The parcel includes a private well and established electric service, reducing the need for and high cost of initial utility installation. The property has an approved Soil test for a septic system, allowing buyers to move forward with development plans after obtaining the required permits. The lot size provides flexibility for a variety of building designs while maintaining manageable acreage for maintenance and use. The property has a gentle slope down to the water's edge, which not only promotes good drainage but may also allow for a walk-out construction plan. The property overlooks the natural wetland Lake Bel-Aire, which is part of a 28-acre tract owned and maintained by the Lowell Parks Department. This setting offers open views and adjacency to publicly owned green space without placing maintenance responsibility on the property owner. The nearby parkland contributes to the area's open character and provides access to town-managed outdoor space. Currently, that property is not accessible from the road and consists mainly of trees, natural vegetation, and the wetland lake; it is almost like you would have your own private nature preserve right in your backyard! The lot is located near Lowell High School and town services, shops, and dining options. Road access is via 175th Street, which turns into a long, tree-lined driveway to the property via the legal easement. The surrounding area includes a mix of residential properties, open land, and public spaces consistent with this part of Lake County. Lowell is located in northwest Indiana and provides convenient access to larger communities and regional routes. The property is approximately 1.5 miles from downtown Lowell, about 17 miles from Crown Point, approximately 20 miles from Valparaiso, and around 35 miles from downtown Chicago. These nearby towns and cities offer expanded shopping, medical services, employment centers, and additional amenities. This property may be suitable for buyers seeking a buildable lot with existing utilities, a lake view, and proximity to schools and town amenities. All potential uses and building plans should be verified with Lake County and Town of Lowell officials to ensure compliance with zoning ordinances, building codes, and septic regulations.
