Description

Charming 2-Bed Ranch for a 1st time buyer or Great Flip Potential (Quiet Block / 2-Car Garage) Description: This inviting ranch-style home presents a fantastic opportunity for both first-time buyers and savvy investors. With a clean interior and solid structure, it's ready to transform into a cozy, modern gem. Currently 2 bedrooms / 1.5 baths, the home sits on a peaceful street yet remains just minutes from the expressway for convenient commuting. Step inside to find a well-kept interior with all appliances included - a turnkey feature many buyers love. The home has recently been tuckpointed and maintained with care. Though the exterior could use a little work, it's a manageable project that will increase overall value as exterior improvements are done. One of the strongest features? The basement is ready to be finished - with the potential for the home to be converted to a 3 or 4 bedroom, 2 full bath layout. With that renovation, resale value could exceed $280,000. Backyard gatherings will be a breeze, and the 2-car garage provides extra storage or workshop space or just a great space for your car during those cold Chicago winters. If you're interested in an income property, the home is also well suited for rental: it recently achieved $1,800/month rent, with potential to hit $2,200. The sale is AS-IS, giving you full creative freedom. (1/2 bath in the basement, not functioning) Don't miss this rare chance to acquire a solid home with both immediate livable value and long-term upside. Schedule your showing today - opportunity like this is hard to come by.
