Description

Historic charming spacious bungalow located on an extra wide (almost lot and a half) lot a few blocks from downtown, metra, and restaurants. Seller is willing to be negotiable, if buyer can close quickly! The home is super solid with some newer updates such as windows on the 1st floor, attractive vinyl siding, hot water heater and boiler. The 1st floor is highlighted by a classic foyer followed by a sun room off the gigantic living room which has crown molding, a wood burning fireplace with built in bookshelves as well a a huge separate dining room for fun family get togethers. There is a good sized eat in kitchen, a 1st floor bedroom, full bath and office. If you remodel the inside, you will have a ' statement" 1924 bungalow. Since this area is zoned multi family it is possible to convert this bungalow to a multi family residence or to knock it down and build a brand new 3 flat for example (check with the village of Des Plaines for any restrictions). Put this on your must see list. The 2018 real estate taxes of $ 994.63 include homeowner, senior and senior freeze exemptions. If the buyer is not 65 and lives in the home, they would qualify for the homeowners exemption of $ 1,027.40 which would make the property taxes $ 5,908.58.
