Description

Fabulous location and opportunity to bring this 1886 Farmhouse Victorian back to life! Located on a spacious 50x175 foot lot in the Ridgeland historic district surrounded by other grand homes. Walking distance to everything including the high school, farmers market, transportation, Ridgeland commons pool/skating rink and hot downtown Oak Park! Home has been in the family since 1969 and is a project for serious rehabbers only so being sold STRICTLY in As Is condition, however the potential is fantastic for a skilled buyer. First floor has a double parlor living room, dining room, eat in kitchen and powder room. Second floor has 4 bedrooms and a full bath. The third-floor unfinished walk-up attic could be ideal for a future master bedroom suite. First floor has a woodburning fireplace in living room and high ten-foot ceilings. There is a rare side drive and a three-car parking pad on the back of the lot (two of the three spaces currently rented month to month to neighbors) there is plenty of room to build a large garage. Home is being sold in a trust, so no disclosures provided. Please bring serious buyers only for this great Oak Park opportunity!
