This cozy 3-bedroom, 1-bath home in Countryside offers a great opportunity for new buyers or downsizers looking to get into a low tax community with a ton to offer its residents! While the home is on the smaller side, it's clean, functional, and full of potential. The standout feature is the large 100x200 foot yard-perfect for outdoor gatherings, gardening, or future expansion. There's no basement, but the layout is simple and easy to maintain. A solid option for someone looking to personalize a home or invest in a spacious lot in a great location. Easy access to I-55, Route 83, I294 and I88. Close to shopping, grocery stores, and restaurants. 1 block to Rafferty's and 3 blocks to Kenny's! Located on the self named Countryside walking/biking/access path. Close to the largest park in Countryside where you can hear music in the park this summer or catch a youth baseball, softball or soccer game. This is truly a location that has easy access to all that Countryside has to offer.
