This is a well kept older home with tons of character and potential. All the rooms are nice sized, beautiful yard in the back with mature trees and more! The yard is bigger than it appears in the pics! Also this home has a 2 car detached garage, a 24x12 covered porch in back, and a concrete open patio area in front. There are some updates, and there is some updating to do, but at this price, you are a winner! Currently the stove, refrigerator, washer, and dryer will stay with the home. They all currently work, but included as is, as some are older. Plumbing work completed 8/2021, connecting upstairs bathroom to city sewer. Roof newer in 2016, washer newer in June 2021. The kitchen is very spacious with plenty of room for table & hutch. Dining area is combined off the kitchen. Living room is nice sized with an area off of it for office or use as a family room. You could also make that another bedroom if the buyer needs to, there is a closet off that room. Main level master bedroom with double closet and spacious. Home has main level laundry, cozied into the main level bathroom just off the mud room. The entry way/mud room is spacious and roomy for your coats & shoes! You will also notice that the home has been insulated years ago, so helpful with keeping the utility costs reasonable. Home is located near the end of a street, so not busy with traffic. This home overlooks the bluff, looking down on the city. In the fall when the leaves are gone, you can see the Illinois River and the lock & dam to the south! You won't find these views just anywhere! Move right in and enjoy the comforts of rural living within the city limits!
