About this House

A perfect starter home, or something to downsize to, this home is located in a beautiful historic district on Elgin's Eastside. The home features timeless architectural details and a quaint open front porch welcomes you. Upon entering you'll notice 9ft ceilings and gorgeous hardwood floors carefully nestled between the oversized baseboards. The family room, dining room and kitchen all flow together on the main floor and create an open feel. There's a sliding door from the kitchen out to the large deck and a good-sized backyard. Both bedrooms are located upstairs and there is an unfinished basement that is great for storage and a work area. Although this home is move-in ready, there is still plenty that you can do to add instant equity through some handyman work and improvement. Take advantage of this low-priced home while it's available! Sold during processing.

    "I live here and over the years have witnessed a renaissance of this area. Elgin is fast becoming a place to watch. Ideally located for those who work in Chicago or in the western suburbs, Elgin has 3 commuter train stops and easy access to areas like Schaumburg and Algonquin. Directly adjacent to I90 and Route 20, as well as Randall and Irving Park road. Elgin offers easy access to the western business corridor and recreation."
