Great opportunity to update. There is a gem just waiting to be uncovered in this charming 1800's Italianate farmhouse. The home is situated in fabulous walk to location near Main Street shops, restaurants, Metra and CTA trains. 1990's addition created first floor family room with gas fireplace and built in shelving leading to inviting screened in porch. Also added was a spacious second floor master bedroom featuring vaulted ceiling, skylights and gas fireplace, full master bath and walk-in closet. The adjoining tandem room (with 3rd bedroom potential) leads to 2nd floor hall and large bedroom and full bath. Pretty garden and 2 car detached garage. 50 x 124 lot. The home is being SOLD "AS-IS". Please inspect prior to offer.
