If you've been searching for a generously sized home with endless potential, this spacious ranch is ready to welcome you. Offering over 1,800 square feet of open floor plan, it includes 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, giving you the room you need to live, work, and play, all under one roof. Step inside to discover a large living room that connects seamlessly to the eat-in kitchen, then expand into the formal dining room for additional entertaining space. A separate family room provides even more room to spread out. The laundry room entry from the 1.5-car attached garage adds everyday convenience, while the 2-car-wide driveway offers plenty of space for multiple vehicles. This home needs updating, making it the perfect opportunity to put in some sweat equity and create a style that's truly your own. With a roof and siding just 10 years old, the bones are solid, now it's your turn to bring the vision. Two furnaces add extra comfort and efficiency. Being sold strictly as-is by the estate, this is a rare chance to invest in a home with great space, great potential, and a great future. Close to shopping, restaurants, downtown, train, tollway and more.
