Description

Welcome to 1055 South 4th Avenue in Kankakee-a classic three-bedroom, two-bath ranch home full of opportunity and untapped potential. From the moment you step inside, you'll see the solid layout and character that make this property a perfect canvas for the right buyer. The main level offers a traditional and functional floor plan featuring a spacious living room, dedicated dining area, kitchen, three bedrooms, and a full bathroom-all conveniently laid out for everyday living. Downstairs, the full basement expands your possibilities with four additional rooms, a second bathroom, and a laundry area, providing ample space for storage, recreation, or future finishing touches. This home is being sold as-is as part of an estate, and the seller has never occupied the property. While it does require updates and improvements, the upside is undeniable. Whether you're an investor searching for your next flip or rental, or a buyer looking to build equity and create a home of your own, this property delivers value and versatility. Outside, you'll find a detached two-car garage along with additional parking-ideal for multiple vehicles, guests, or added convenience. Opportunities like this don't come around often at this price point. Bring your vision, your tools, and your ambition-this one is ready for its next chapter. Call today to schedule your private showing-serious buyers only.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from May 22, 2026
