This bungalow beauty is ready for a stunning comeback with its substantial architecture of solid brick masonry and original hardwood floors. The first floor features a foyer leading to the spacious living room, a den, and central staircase to the second floor. On the opposite side of the house is the dining room, kitchen, enclosed porch, bedroom, and bathroom - spilling with potential. In the 1980's, longtime owners added a second story featuring 11' lofted family room, a full bathroom, a second bedroom, an office area, skylights and a primary bedroom with a sitting area and dressing area. The basement with 7' ceiling height is unfinished. This gem, sold as-is, also has fenced-in yard and 2-car garage. Located in desirable NW Evanston neighborhood just across from Willard Elementary School, and a few blocks to Bent Park, Curt's Cafe, Mack's Bike Shop, Hartigan's and more. A rare and exciting opportunity to create your dream home in an amazing location.
