Rare find in Normal - space, privacy, and thoughtful updates on 2.36 acres. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the kind of flexibility that's hard to come by: a first-floor primary bedroom and full bath, a spacious first-floor laundry/mudroom, two additional bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, and separate living and family rooms that give everyone room to spread out. The spacious kitchen features updated appliances, including a new LG refrigerator and new dishwasher and microwave. But the real story is what's outside. A massive 1,120 sq ft outbuilding - complete with a dog kennel, half bath, and expansive multi-purpose space - is ready for a workshop, studio, hobby space, or whatever your imagination demands. Wooded backdrop, large grassy yard, and generous off-street parking round out a property that truly delivers on every front. And the bones? Solid. Major updates include all-new interior drain lines (2021), all-new bathroom plumbing (2026), a fully remodeled downstairs bath (2026), new A/C (2025), and new plank laminate flooring throughout most of the home with freshly remodeled upstairs bedrooms. This one checks boxes you didn't even know you had.
