Welcome to 356 N William St, a 1926 home in Joliet's historic Cathedral Area with the kind of character that's hard to find today. The big-ticket items are already done, with the roof, gutters, windows, and siding all replaced around 2020. Inside you'll find a large living room anchored by a fireplace, a separate dining room for gatherings, and a bright family room off the back that could easily become a sunroom, office, or playroom. The original wood staircase leads to four bedrooms on the second floor, including a primary suite with its own full bath. A full basement and attic give you room to grow, and outside there's a fenced yard and a 2-car garage. With roughly 2,000 square feet on a .17 acre lot, this home has great bones and is ready for someone to bring it back to life and make it their own. The home also has solar panels with a transferable agreement that the buyer will assume. Whether you're looking for a home to put your stamp on or an investment in one of Joliet's most charming neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity. Step outside and you're close to Marquette Park, the Upper Bluff Historic District, and the University of St. Francis campus. Downtown Joliet is just minutes away, where you can catch a show at the Rialto Square Theatre (which opened the same year this home was built), stroll the riverfront at Bicentennial Park, take in a Slammers game, or explore Route 66 history at the Joliet Area Historical Museum. Commuters will love being about a mile from the Metra Rock Island and Heritage Corridor lines. Whether you're looking for a home to put your stamp on or an investment in one of Joliet's most charming neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity. Sold as-is.
