This well-located property presents a prime investment opportunity. This two-unit converted residential rental is situated directly across the street from the Illinois Wesleyan University Library and campus, and less than five hundred feet from historic Franklin Park. Unit 1 offers two bedrooms and one bathroom, while Unit 2 features two or three bedrooms and one bathroom. Each unit has its own private entrance and access to a partially finished basement with shared laundry (approximately 9' x 10'). The basement includes finished rooms with storage, an egress window, and a bonus half bathroom. Additional highlights include extra off-street parking behind the house, a "through" driveway, and a storage shed.

Conversion back to a single-family residence is also possible.
