An updated ranch on a corner lot in Unit 5 - three bedrooms and two full baths, all on one level. The kitchen centers on a butcher-block island, with luxury vinyl plank flooring and new appliances that have never been run. Refinished hardwood runs through the living room and all three bedrooms. Both baths have been redone, along with paint, trim, fixtures, and interior doors throughout. More recently: an updated electrical panel, 50-gallon water heater, and a replacement garage door. Full unfinished basement, detached garage, central air, deck and patio. Parks, shopping, and Oakdale Elementary are close by. Schedule a showing to see it in person.
Kingsridge, located between Veterans Parkway and Towanda Avenue, is a residential and suburban Normal neighborhood with curving cul-de-sacs and mature street trees. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Veterans Parkway corridor near College Avenue, where coffee counters, local eateries, and everyday errands cluster in a steady hum of traffic. Housing leans toward late-20th-century single-family builds with attached garages, tidy lawns, and occasional townhouse pockets. Sidewalk loops and small greenspaces shape a walk-and-roll routine, while Constitution Trail links the area to broader town paths. Illinois State University and Uptown Normal sit a short drive away for galleries, performances, and dining.
