The real star here is the land - 165x361 - with old growth trees that are the perfect setting for a new home. Close to Burr Ridge Town Center (restaurants, shopping, concerts, farmers' market, Lifetime & more) and to I-55 access to city. Nice 3 BR brick ranch (as-is) has a full basement - and is very solid. 2 garages (1-car & 2-car) are a bonus. And the property is really beautiful. Great schools (Gower & HSHS) too!
