This beautifully remodeled 1-bedroom, 1-bath home sits across the river from the East Riverwalk’s first phase, close to trails and just minutes from downtown Kankakee. Inside, you’ll find an upscale kitchen with a built-in wine refrigerator, designer feature walls throughout, and modern finishes with easy, low-maintenance living — a smart fit for a first-time buyer, downsizer, or investor looking for a turnkey property in a location that’s only getting better.
Outside, enjoy dedicated river access with stairs and a seawall — a rare feature that puts the water right at your doorstep. The property also includes a rare four-car detached garage, offering serious space for vehicles, storage, a workshop, or hobbies — hard to find in this kind of setting.
Move-in ready and full of character, 744 South Schuyler is a walkable, riverfront-area gem that’s tough to beat - with furnishings available for purchase separately for an even easier turnkey move.
