Description
A diamond in the rough! This home is nestled on a wonderful street near Wheaton College and within walking distance of the Metra Train and downtown Wheaton. Ready to be restored to it's former glory. Solidly built with a stone and concrete exterior. Loads of character inside with plaster walls, hardwood floors, arches, and built ins. This gem has great bones with nice sized rooms. The front bedroom is adjacent to the hall bath. The master bedroom is toward the back of the home with a private bath and has french doors into the third bedroom. (The third bedroom is not tandem as it is accessible from a hallway as well). By adding a door to close off the front bedroom area, the layout is perfect for two private master suites, the larger with the additional room useable as a home office, exercise room or sweet nursery. Both full baths have been updated! The kitchen layout is very workable and so is the large laundry/mudroom. Both need updating. Don't miss the guest bath off of the laundry room - it's small but all the needed parts are there! The enclosed back porch overlooks the fenced back yard and is sure to be a favorite space for relaxation. The windows are original and need work. Rather than replace them and lose the cottage vibe, consider cleaning them up and investing in "Inndow Coverings", custom made to ensure climate control within the home. An ideal buyer for this home will likely desire to "get their foot in the door" in a downtown Wheaton home and understands the idea of "sweat equity". Ideal use may be for those wanting to downsize, or as a first home, or as an investment property. The virtually staged photos are illustrative only, to cast a vision for what the home can be.
