Property Description
Have the vision! Welcome to this solidly built ranch on one of the neighborhood's best blocks. Located in Skokie with Evanston schools, this home offers the best of both communities in a wonderful, established neighborhood. With great bones and incredible potential, the home is ready for its next owner to renovate and make it their own. The flexible floor plan currently offers 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, and a primary suite, with the possibility of creating 3 bedrooms. The eating area was previously a third bedroom and could easily be converted back. The rear room was formerly an attached garage and offers the flexibility to remain living space or be restored as a garage by reinstalling a garage door on the pegboard wall. Virtually staged photos illustrate this. A cement driveway at the rear of the property is accessed from the alley. No basement. Bring your contractor, creativity, and vision to this fantastic opportunity in a terrific location!
