MORE PICTURES COMING FROM INTERIOR Charming Cape Cod with Potential, Natural Light & a Spacious Backyard Setting Welcome to 1626 Shirley Dr., Calumet City, IL - a 3-bed, 2-bath Cape Cod offering a great opportunity for first-time buyers or a growing family ready to add personal touches. This 1.5-story brick home with vinyl siding accents sits on a generous quarter-acre lot, complete with a scenic stream and wooded backdrop. With some TLC and vision, the backyard could become a beautiful outdoor retreat for entertaining, gardening, or relaxing. Inside, the home is filled with natural light from multiple windows. The main level features a cozy living area, a full bathroom with a standing shower, and a bonus room for flexible use. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms and a second full bath with a tub. Both bathrooms have been updated within the last two years, adding a modern touch to the home's layout. Underneath the newer vinyl flooring lies original hardwood, offering a chance to restore charm and character. The unfinished basement includes a roughed-in bar area and a spacious laundry/utility room - ideal for storage or future finishing. Recent upgrades (early 2017): *PVC plumbing throughout *Electrical system updates *Newer furnace and water heater *Updated windows throughout Outside, the long driveway leads to a detached 2-car brick garage. The deck and yard need some care, but with a little landscaping and creativity, the exterior space could truly shine. Located just 5 minutes from the upcoming South Shore train line and close to the expressway, this home is in a commuter-friendly location with easy access to downtown Chicago. If you're looking for a home with solid bones, recent mechanical updates, and the potential to build equity with a little work, this is the opportunity you've been waiting for.
