Opportunity knocks for a family who desires a renovation project or an investor. The location, lot size, and floor plan potential will inspire. The house divides naturally on the first floor into formal and informal spaces so desired by today's family. The living room has an inviting stone fireplace. The second floor offers ample bedroom and study space. There is a basement recreation room with a fireplace as well as excellent storage and laundry with a staircase to the outside. There are hardwood floors throughout. The house and garage roofs, furnace, washer & dryer are all under 10 years old. Because there is no driveway from Willow, the full 50 foot lot width is available to enjoy. The newer 2 car garage has alley access from Locust. There is a newer blacktop parking pad for three additional cars as well. A solid house ready for big improvements on a manageable budget. Top location for schools, Crow Island Woods and Park District facilities. House will be sold "as is".

Single-Family Residential District
The requirements set forth in this chapter, together with other provisions set forth in the Building Code of the Village, have been adopted in order to provide for a single-family residential environment of relatively intense suburban character, where the degree of improvements upon an individual parcel of land is in approximate balance with the landscape area of such parcel of land. Due to the mature character of development within this district, such requirements are also intended to assure that future modifications to existing structures, or the replacement of existing structures with new structures, will not alter the scale and general character of established neighborhoods. In this regard, the requirements set forth in this chapter are further intended to foster development which is compatible, in general, with the character of existing single-family development within the immediate neighborhood with respect to external architectural scale, landscaping and other site improvements.
