** Multiple offers - H & B by 7:30 pm on Thurs., 9/22 please ** Excellent opportunity for some sweat equity in this ranch style home with basement, extra spacious garage and located in the Grayslake School District! Owner started this rehab but has moved on to other projects, leaving it for someone else to finish and make some $$ - whether to live in or fix and flip - ? Some major work already completed such as new roof just last Fall (2021), was a complete tear-off, living room walls and ceiling demo'd, new insulation added and all new sheet rock, basement waterproofing completed (owner looking for possible transferrable warranty), new hot water heater just 1 year. The garage is awesome, heated with separate electric and ample outlets on each wall.

Shopping and transportation nearby! Reasonably priced and selling "As Is" only - Cash or conventional offers preferred. See it today!
