About this House

Must see this 2-flat on large corner lot. Plenty of space to add a garage. Home is currently 2 units with 2 newer electrical services. Newer Lennox furnace, roof is 2 years and a deck with two sections 8x25 and 8x10. Wrap around porch. Inside of the units have been redone. If you need a large home why not convert this home from 2 units to one? You would need to unlock the door and utilitze both spaces!GreatInvestment

What Locals Say about Southwest Elgin

  • 86nasus
    "Looks like they did a really quick remodel with cut corners. Honestly, this house would have more charm if they would’ve left it how it was you can see bad angles, more pronounced now where they painted white to look more modern. Floors are crooked and leaning, and that would’ve been OK with original flooring."

    "we are off the beaten path as far as traffic is concerned... there is a very low crime rate in our neighborhood. we have two parks relatively close. there is a grade school within a quarter mile. lots of kids in the neighborhood. even though it appears to be primarily Hispanic there are few rentals and fairly descent upkeep of the houses and landscape. it's one of the quieter neighborhoods I've been in in my 25 years here in elgin"
