This is a hidden GEM! This home is located in a quiet section of South Watseka that still boasts majestic tree lined streets. The attic is partially finished (heated & cooled) with a ladder access...for the perfect secret clubhouse! Original hardwood floors abound in almost every room. A gas-log fireplace warms up the living room. The formal dining room has a classic chair rail and wood-framing details. 3 bedrooms on the 2nd floor with a full bath and 2 sinks. Half bath on main floor. Galley-style kitchen has a breakfast nook surrounded by windows overlooking the back yard. Appliances all stay all which are less than 3 years old. Laundry is out of the way in the basement and the washer and dryer will stay. Lifetime warranty on the newly installed Leaf Filter on the gutters! Don't overlook this amazing home!
