Description
Unique, single family living opportunity at condo pricing! Well-maintained 2BD/1BA detached single family home tucked away on a 50' by 170' lot shared with another home. Legally classified as a condominium with no homeowner association fees or dues, the property has its own secluded and spacious yard, two parking spaces and a storage shed. Inside, the light-filled home abounds with amenities and charm, including a wood-burning fireplace with built-in bookshelves surrounding the hearth, a separate dining room with wall-to-wall windows overlooking the yard, hardwood floors and abundant closet and storage space. The open kitchen has Hamilton steel cabinetry, stainless appliances, the original cast iron farmhouse sink and a built-in breakfast bar with seating for two. Upstairs, the master bedroom opens onto a large deck with a pergola and treetop view. Major recent capital improvements include: brand new roof (installed 5/20), new energy efficient boiler (3/20) and new clothes dryer (12/19). Conveniently located across from the new Robert Crown Center and Washington Elementary School; the home is a short walk to the Main St. El, Metra, restaurants, shopping and Sketchbook Brewery. Property reassessment is expected to lower the annual property taxes paid to between $3,700-$4,700.
