Handyman/Rehabber home. It appears as though 2 additions have been added to the home throughout the years. 2 separate staircases lead upstairs to 2 bedrooms. Master bedroom is on the first floor. Older boiler. The older foundation is...
cinder-block; newer area for additions is concrete.
12 years ago• May not reflect the current state of the home
Lots of different floor styles throughout the home. Unique layout. Older in many areas of the home. Will need some upkeep on the exterior, paint peeling and some weathered areas.

Charming home on a gorgeous lot just steps away from historical downtown Long Grove. Built in the 40's it offers 5 bedrooms, 4 baths, including an expansive master suite. Two fireplaces, a heated porch, and fixtures reminiscent of the period. 3 parcels totaling almost 2 acres, a large storage bldg that could be converted to a 2 car garage complete the picture. Primary value is in the land. Rehab needed. Sold as-is.
