Property Description
RIVERSIDE FIXER UPPER! Welcome to this classic Mansard-style brick home featuring 3 bedrooms and 1 full/2 half baths, ideally located in the heart of historic Riverside. Built in 1941 and owned by the same family for more than 55 years, this 2350 SF property is brimming with original character and offers timeless details and a well-designed floor plan with endless possibilities. Inside, you'll find generous room sizes and an ideal layout, making it the perfect canvas for updates and customization. The first level boasts a living room, dining room, den, and a large eat-in kitchen with an adjacent butlers pantry, walk-in pantry, and mudroom. The second level, with its 3 bedrooms, provides an excellent opportunity to re-imagine the largest bedroom space over the garage into a true primary suite. A full basement, matching the footprint of the first floor, offers even more potential with plenty of space to re-finish and create additional living or entertaining areas. Perfectly situated in a highly sought-after community known for its architecture, parks, and award-winning schools, this home presents a rare opportunity to create your dream residence while preserving the charm and craftsmanship of its original design. Located just nine miles west of downtown Chicago, Riverside is a historic, tree-lined community designed by famed landscape architect Frederick Law Olmsted. Recognized for its winding streets, lush parkways, and timeless architecture, the village offers a peaceful, picturesque setting along the Des Plaines River. With its charming downtown, top-rated schools, and easy access to the city, Riverside perfectly blends small-town charm and urban convenience. Mansard roof and windows were replaced approximately 10 years ago. Age of the flat roof portions is unknown. Bring your creative vision and make this Riverside gem shine! ESTATE SALE, HOME NEEDS UPDATING AND EVERYTHING IS BEING CONVEYED AS-IS.
