Description

Wonderful opportunity to build some incredible equity in this charming 3-4 bedroom home, just a short stroll from Bradley University and historic Moss Avenue. Wood floors throughout the entire house! Cozy and enchanting rear den/family room located off the large eat-in kitchen! Built for entertaining, the living room has an abundance of windows for natural light and a timeless piece of history with the carved real marble fireplace mantle. Picture yourself playing games or reading a book in the rear sunroom! 3-4 generous sized bedrooms on the second level, with the master suite over-looking the large rear yard, offering a private entrance into either the bonus room/4th bedroom/reading room-complete with fireplace. Spend your summers relaxing under the large covered front porch, or by the exterior fireplace in the back yard. New furnace and central air in the last year! Two beautifully updated full baths on the second level, and space for an additional bathroom to be built out, adjacent to the large walk-in laundry room. There’s also an extra side lot included as well-large enough to sell off and build another home, or keep as an addition to this home! Primary home has a large 2 car garage, and the additional lot also has another garage. Owner has never occupied the home, as such, it is being sold as-is, with all real estates and personal property included, no credits given. Lot measurement includes both lots. 2nd lot taxes are $727.86. Last 4 photos virtually staged.

Bradley park borders the neighborhood with playgrounds, beautiful trails, frisbee golf, tennis courts, sand volleyball courts, a baseball diamond, a shelter for entertaining, a shuffleboard court, and more. Bradley University's campus is just south of the neighborhood, providing fine arts entertainment and convenient access to other university amenities."
