Property Description
Located in the desirable Pleasant Hills neighborhood just minutes from Uptown Normal, this solid 3 bedroom 1.5 bath all brick ranch combines classic charm with major potential. The curb appeal is already dialed in thanks to fresh landscaping and a composite deck that makes the exterior feel both polished and low maintenance. Inside, the layout is practical and inviting. The spacious living room is filled with natural light from oversized front windows, creating a warm and open feel. The kitchen offers generous cabinet space and strong potential to be opened up or re-imagined with a modern design. All three bedrooms are well sized. The full bath features double sinks and the primary bedroom has its own private half bath. While the finishes could use a refresh, the home itself offers a solid blank canvas. The finished basement adds valuable flex space that can function as a second living area, home office, playroom, or guest suite. Key updates include a new HVAC system, a gutter helmet system to reduce exterior maintenance, and the composite deck that extends your living space outdoors for entertaining or relaxing. The brick exterior provides long term durability and appeal. Set in Pleasant Hills, a quiet walkable neighborhood filled with tall trees and local charm, this property is close to shopping, Anderson Park, and the Constitution Trail. This home is being sold as is and offers a strong opportunity for buyers looking to customize or invest. With good bones, smart upgrades, and a standout location, it is ready for its next chapter.
