INSTANT EQUITY!!! PRICED BELOW THE COMPS. Fantastic opportunity as this charming property is loaded with abundant potential! NEW water heater, NEW siding & gutters, NEW roof in 2015, NEW windows in 2015, NEW SS kitchen refrigerator & oven, PLUS hardwood floors throughout the majority of this home including upstairs! The first floor family room greets you with a gorgeous picture window offering ample natural light. The hardwood floors continue into the first floor bedroom that offers a connected half bath- great potential for a playroom or home office. This property truly has character, from the small details like the arched interior entryways, wide staircase, additional nooks of storage & large closets, the oversized front porch (21 x 4), the concrete walk way on the side of the home. Envision the upstairs expansive master suite as it boasts a large floor plan with an existing 5x7 walk in closet; could easily be converted to nearly 17 feet of additional closet length with the upstairs hall walk in closet!

With a first floor laundry and large utility area, no need for muddy shoes or work clothes to come through the home- there's storage in every nook of this delightful property. Additional overhead storage exists in the garage with tall ceilings and unlimited potential continues in the basement with workshop space as the mechanics are already convienently separated from the partially finished area of the basement. So much to do and see, you'll love where you live when you're just a short distance from the Park District Nature Center, School Playground, Historical Center and the Elementary School is just down the street! Pack a lawn chair to cheer on the holiday parades as they step off just down the street near the Police Department. Don't forget to invite friends and family over as you'll have a view of the 4th of July fireworks too! Ample shopping & dining nearby as well as easy access to Kingery, I-88 and 55 within a short drive- great for commuters!
