About this property

Hamilton Hideaway | Walk to Beach & Fire Pit

  • Welcome to The Hamilton Hideaway, nestled in the heart of Gary's historic Miller Beach neighborhood — offering the best of both worlds: quiet, tree-lined surroundings with easy access to everything Lake Michigan has to offer. Rarely will you find a home so close to Lake Michigan with such style and comfort.



    INDOOR LIVING

    The bright, open-concept interior features contemporary finishes and 1,645 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. The fully equipped kitchen with stainless steel appliances flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, making it easy for everyone to gather comfortably. Both bathrooms have been renovated with custom tilework for a spa-like feel, and the home has been thoughtfully updated throughout for your comfort and peace of mind.

    The home features 3 comfortable bedrooms and 2 bathrooms — perfect for families, small groups, or solo travelers who want a little extra space — plus a private in-law suite, a versatile efficiency unit ideal for multi-generational stays or guests seeking added privacy.



    OUTDOOR LIVING

    The large fenced yard is perfect for cookouts, games, or simply stretching out and relaxing. The covered front porch is a cozy spot for morning coffee or winding down with a good book, and as the evening sets in, gather around the fire pit on the deck for cozy nights under the stars.



    THE NEIGHBORHOOD

    Set in the peaceful Marquette Park neighborhood, The Hamilton Hideaway places you just a five-minute walk from Lake Street Beach and Indiana Dunes National Park trails. Explore nearby restaurants, shops, and cafés along Lake Street, or take a short drive to Chicago for big-city adventures before returning to your quiet retreat by the lake.
