Property Description
CALLING ALL REHABBERS & BUILDERS!Fantastic opportunity in unincorporated Mount Prospect, surrounded by newer custom homes and just minutes from parks, schools, shopping, Metra, and major highways. The value lies in the land and location, offering endless potential to build new or to bring your design vision to life through a complete renovation. This rare 100' x 160.6' lot (approximately 0.37 acres) includes public sewer, a major advantage for new construction that eliminates a significant redevelopment cost. The property provides a generous footprint, a newer garage and driveway, and beautiful surroundings, an ideal setup for your next custom project. Located in the River Trails School District 26 and District 214, the area continues to show strong appreciation, especially with the anticipated Chicago Bears relocation to nearby Arlington Heights, which will add even more long-term value. The home and land are being sold as-is as part of an estate sale. Quick closing available! Whether you're planning a full rehab or a ground-up build, this is a rare opportunity in a highly desirable pocket of Mount Prospect.
