VERBALLY ACCEPTED OFFER. PAPERWORK PENDING. Charming and cozy cottage just minutes from downtown DeKalb! This 2-bedroom, 1-bath home is ideal for first-time buyers, downsizers, or anyone seeking a low-maintenance lifestyle. It also offers great potential as a rental or Airbnb investment. Lovingly cared for by the current owners, this cottage is within walking distance to schools, parks, shopping, and dining. A quaint, manicured front yard with a sidewalk welcomes you to the front door. Inside, you'll find a bright living room with vinyl plank flooring and a large picture window overlooking the front yard. A decorative fireplace (non-functioning) adds charm and makes a great focal point. The cozy eat-in kitchen features maple cabinetry, all appliances, and plenty of room for a table-perfect for casual meals or extra prep space-with lovely views of the backyard. The primary bedroom overlooks the front yard, while the second bedroom has backyard views. A shared closet separates the two rooms. The updated bathroom features modern finishes and colors. The mud/laundry room includes storage space and houses a newer furnace (2025); the washer and dryer stay. Step out back to enjoy a fully fenced yard-ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or letting pets roam free. There's also a handy storage shed (sold as-is). Additional updates include a roof replacement in 2015 and new furnace and gutters in 2025. With easy access to I-88 and everything DeKalb has to offer, this charming home won't last long. Don't miss your chance!

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
