This home is just steps from downtown Aurora, Stolp Island, and the highly coveted Aurora University neighborhood. Solid brick ranch home features an arched front door, two sets of French doors, original hardwood floors, vintage light fixtures, built-ins throughout, and a beautiful brick wood-burning fireplace. There is a functioning toilet in the unfinished basement which is true of the times and is waiting for you to customize. Recent updates include a new roof in 2022 and new sewer lines in 2021.
