Adorable and vintage 2-story on public sewer and water and close to everything. This home features newer replacement windows (approx. 5 yrs new), new 30 year shingled roof (approx. 2 yrs. new), an outdoor shed in good condition, remodeled bathroom w/ceramic tile flooring & tub surround, and a high-efficiency furnace. The property offers approx. 1/3 an acre, a huge backyard deck, mature trees, a winding sidewalk from your garage to the home, and beautiful perennials that come back year after year! If you're a front porch kind of person, look no further! We have a covered one here to enjoy! Do you like nature? Enjoy the majestic Catalpa tree that brings beauty & shade to your home! The property is less than a half a mile to Cedar Lake where you can launch a boat, enjoy the beach, or watch a peaceful sunset whenever you please as a resident of Lake Villa. The property is also only about 1 1/2 miles to Grant Woods Forest Preserve to the West, with 1226 acres of nature and fun at your fingertips, including: 6 miles of gravel hiking/biking/cross-country ski trails, 4.5 miles of snowmobile trails that lead to other trails, and even a boat launch. Need to catch the METRA Train? The station is only about 1/2 mile down the road. The unfinished partial basement/cellar is perfect for storage, or even shelter with tornado watches/warnings. Don't wait another minute to see this well-priced, once in a million charmer!
