Property Description
Location, location, location! A must-see fantastic Rehab/Investment opportunity in a great North Evanston location, tucked just off Green Bay Road. This simple three bedroom, two full bath home is on a block just steps from Central Street's boutique shops and restaurants, and a Union Pacific North Metro Station. The main level offers a light-filled, wood-floored living room, large kitchen and two bedrooms with a full bath. The second level, under the gable roof, contains a modest second full bath. The basement is unfinished, with laundry and a lot of conditioned space for storage. The large south yard features a tandem car concrete parking pad and rear, shaded green space. Rehabbers and Builders: This charming home needs updating, but with a creative renovation, it could be absolutely adorable. Evanston's Planning and Zoning Division will allow a 20' front yard home addition, if you want to expand. The location is on a prime tree-lined neighborhood street, close to McCulloch Park, NU's new Ryan Field, Evanston Hospital and walking distance from all that North Evanston/ Wilmette has to offer. The property is sold "As/Is".
