Description

Back on the market, buyers financing fell through at the last minute. Large ranch home with 1,500 square feet plus a partially finished basement for under 300k!!! Fantastic area just blocks from Downtown Palatine, the Park District, Family Aquatic Center and the Metra stop. Tons of shopping and restaurants within walking distance and highly sought after schools. This home features an open feel and has hardwood floors throughout the property, skylight above the kitchen, extended family room, eat in kitchen area and 3 bedrooms. The basement is partially finished with a half kitchen, laundry room, half bath and storage area (walls are cut due to a backup a long time ago). A number of the big ticket items were recently replaced including a newer roof and furnace. The backyard is huge with a large deck off the sliding glass door, sprawling grass area, gigantic shed and a tandem two car garage. At this price range and square footage this home will not last long!!! Due to a trust sale property being sold in AS IS condition.
