Outside, enjoy your morning coffee on the inviting wrap-around porch, host summer cookouts on the deck or brick paver patio, and relax in the private, tree-lined backyard backing to city-owned open space with no direct neighbors behind. A detached two-car garage completes the property. Conveniently located just minutes from downtown Elgin, Metra, I-90, shopping, dining, parks, and everyday conveniences, this move-in ready home delivers the character buyers love with the space and versatility they rarely find.
