What's special

Cute ranch within walking distance to UIHC and Kinneck! Recently updated home which can be a rental (current license in place) or owner occupied. Tenant is in place through April. The third bedroom in the basement is non-conforming but adds a great additional living space! Nice backyard with a fence allows for privacy and a perfect tailgating location! Take a look at this great property - it won't last long!
