    What's special

    Very nice 4 bedroom ranch with 3 baths. Enter the large foyer and go to living room or kitchen. There is a sitting area on far end of living room for an informal setting or enjoy a very large living room. The 3 baths help accommodate the large family. Large eat-in kitchen with a pantry plus a dining room for all your tasty meals. Master bedroom and bedroom 3 have walkin closets plus more closet space. This home is much larger than it looks in pictures and from the outside. The large basement is unfinished and the full bath is in need of updating, but there is a nice wet bar ready for your enjoyment as well as a partially finished office/den. House is in need a little TLC but presents a large amount of space. Large 2.5 car detached garage. Great backyard with a brick fire pit. Convenient to schools, I-90, shopping, and Metra.
