Charming and surprisingly spacious with gorgeous landscaping (just nominated for Village of Skokie beautification award!). A solidly built brick ranch home offering 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the main floor. The full basement offers huge additional living space with 2 large finished rooms and a full bath plus storage and utility. The basement walk-out connects the finished breezeway and the attached 2-1/2 car garage. Don't let the corner lot fool you- there is plenty of outdoor space all around for gardening and a patio in back for grilling and entertaining. Fantastic Shawnee Park just next door provides ample extra yard and play space and you don't have to mow it! Long time owners have done many upgrades including a new roof, replaced windows, 2 remodeled baths, but the next lucky owner will continue the good work and perhaps design their own new kitchen and more! *****Price reflects some interior work needed...Must convey " 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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
