About this House

Estate sale – being offered as-is. This spacious 3-bedroom, 3-bath ranch home sits on a generous 0.59-acre lot and offers nearly 1,800 square feet of living space plus a full basement. Built in 1967 and owned by the original family since construction, the home presents a great opportunity for buyers looking to renovate and build equity.

The main level features a traditional layout with a separate living room, family room, and formal dining room, providing plenty of space for gathering and entertaining. Large front windows bring in natural light, while sliding doors at the rear open to a concrete patio overlooking the deep backyard. The eat-in kitchen includes the original cabinetry and finishes along with a range/oven, dishwasher, and refrigerator, offering a functional layout ready for updating to your taste.

A convenient main-level laundry area with washer and gas dryer included adds everyday practicality, while additional laundry hookups are also available in the basement.

The full-height basement spans the entire footprint of the home and includes framed partition areas, storage space, washer/dryer hookups, and a bathroom area ready for renovation. The basement offers excellent potential for a workshop, hobby space, or future finishing, though waterproofing improvements and structural repair to the rear wall will be needed.

Outside, the property features a large rectangular yard with mature trees and plenty of open space, as well as a storage shed and patio area. The attached two-car garage connects directly to the home and is complemented by an extended driveway, allowing for additional off-street parking.

Conveniently located in Ottawa with easy access to Interstate 80, this property offers a combination of space, location, and potential. With nearly 60 years of single-family ownership, this home is ready for its next chapter.

Due to the estate sale, the property is being sold as-is and priced to reflect needed repairs and updates, including basement structural work and cosmetic improvements throughout.

    "One of us is 5 minutes away, the other works from home. Our home is 5-10 minutes from many restaurants and stores. "

    "Need a vehicle to access most areas of Ottawa. Walking is an option, due to many sidewalks. Ottawa is limited because of only one bridge crossing the Illinois River. The Northeast side of town (where the High School located) is also limited because of only 2 ways in and out. Currently it has only 1 way due to construction. "

  • Felix A. L. O.
    "Location cannot be beat. Lovely area filled with unique styles of homes. Not a cookie-cutter development. Quiet, peaceful and friendly. Great mix of people of all ages. Well maintained homes make the North side a sought after location. Believe it or not, there are people who actually did not know this area of Ottawa exists. Close enough to the downtown area if you choose to take a nice walk to the riverfront. Good caring neighbors. Cannot emphasize enough how nice and tranquil it is in this area. Great School District, close to all churches and Ottawa Regional Hospital and Medical Center. Definately a lovely place to live. "
