Experience the charm of sought after North Downers Grove in this rarely available price point. This is a phenomenal location...0.7 miles to Downtown Downers Grove, a 15-minute walk to Main St. OR Fairview train stations with multiple express trains to the city, 1 block to highly rated Whittier Elementary and 2 blocks to coveted Randall Park with tennis courts. This light and bright midcentury gem is waiting for the next owners to bring vision to make it their own! Featuring 3 beds with hardwood floors, 1 bath and a finished and dry lower level plus a crawl space. The kitchen features tall ceilings for an open and airy feel. All new windows except lower level (2007), new garage door (2024) and new garage roof (2018) and tankless hot water heater. The backyard is part wetland created by the owners. There is a drainage line that was installed in the catch basin on the southeast corner of the property that is ready for a French drain, which would resolve the standing water to the south of the garage and along the north property line of the house. The house and crawl are bone dry. Welcome home to a neighborhood that you have dreamed of with block parties, annual holiday luminaria, Easter egg hunt, soap box derby and more. Sold AS IS.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
