Highly desired location for this spacious 1.5 story property in Homewood. This home is solid brick and sits on a great lot that has just been professionally landscaped and just painted on the interior of the 1st and 2nd floors. Many updates and upgrades have been made over the last 8 years including newer electrical, plumbing, water heater, and furnace. The entire exterior has just been painted. Gleaming hardwood floors throughout the main level. Updated kitchen area with a side access door to driveway and backyard's newly installed deck. 2 Bedrooms on the main level. Fireplace in the living room. Updated main floor full bath. The 2nd level features two more bedrooms. The Master bedroom has a private half bath. And if you need more space-no problem here!! This home also has a full finished walkout basement complete with an additional full bath, rec room area and laundry room/storage area. Long side driveway allows plenty of parking and leads to a 1 car detached garage. This home is located just steps to Richard D. Irwin park, and within blocks to Homewood Civic Centers, Amtrak Station and I-294 Expressway. Homes in this subdivision don't come often so don't miss out!!
Property Beautifully Redeveloped. Great buy for your 1st time home buyers!!!! Move right in!
