Indian Woods! This area is one of the northwest sides best kept secrets - A neighborhood where everyone knows your name! Just blocks from the Edgebrook Country Club, Billy Caldwell golf course and the North Branch bike trails. Surrounded by beautiful groves and forest preserves. Convenient access to everywhere from here - the Edens, 90, Peterson, Elston and Milwaukee Avenues. The house is ready for a "new look" but it has great bones - there are hardwood floors, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, a 3 season room, and a semi-updated kitchen. The yard is partially fenced and there is a detached garage off the alley. The home will be sold in as-is condition without exception.

RS-2
Residential Single-Unit (Detached House) District
The primary purpose of the RS districts is to accommodate the development of detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RS zoning be applied in areas where the land-use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Ordinance includes three RS districts - RS2 - which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements and floor area ratios.
