Nestled in the picturesque West End of Decatur, Illinois, this traditional 2 story home at 1447 W Wood St boasts timeless charm and character. Featuring 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms, this historic gem was built in 1910 and retains all the unique features of its era, including built-in shelving and crown molding. A sunroom at the rear of the house offers a serene view of the spacious backyard. The well-appointed kitchen comes complete with appliances, while replacement windows flood the home with natural light. Original hardwood flooring graces most rooms, concealed beneath the carpet, and the relatively new roof and recently cleaned gutters ensure worry-free living. With vinyl siding and a convenient concrete driveway, this property is being sold AS-IS, offering a canvas for personalization and potential. Walking distance to Millikin University and Dennis Lab School is across the street.
