Meticulously maintained brick home in the heart of Chatham! This one has been cared for inside and out, from the manicured front lawn and landscaped beds to the gleaming hardwood floors throughout. A bright living room is centered on an oversized picture window that fills the space with natural light and opens to a warm, wood-paneled family room with built-in storage. The spacious eat-in kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, a stainless dishwasher, newer flooring, and plenty of room to gather. The main level has an eat-in kitchen area that could easily be made a 3rd bedroom/office, plus generously sized bedrooms upstairs with ceiling fans and a second full bath. The partially finished basement adds a large rec room with a half bath, and there's a dedicated laundry area with a utility sink and extra storage. Big-ticket items are covered with a newer furnace and hot water tank. Enjoy a fenced yard and a 2.5-car garage, all within easy reach of shopping and transportation. First-time buyers, this is your chance to get in with little money down! Eligible buyers may qualify for down payment assistance, including Chicago's HomeGrown program (grants up to $70,000), IHDAccess Home (up to $15,000), Cook County DPA (up to 5% of purchase price, max $25,000), and the other IHDA Access programs. You can combine many of these to cover your down payment and closing costs. Funds are limited, so bring your preapproved buyers today!
