Property Description
Welcome to 1520 Cherokee Dr, a tri-level home with inviting spaces, major updates and an opportunity to add your finishing touches! The attached two-car garage features an 8ft tall door replaced in 2019 and connects to the home through a convenient mudroom/breezeway-a practical space to leave shoes, coats and everyday essentials. The main level brings together a comfortable living room, ceramic tile flooring, and an updated kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a backsplash, and soft-close shaker cabinets with 42-inch uppers. Remodeled in 2019, the kitchen and adjoining dining area enjoy natural light from a skylight and access through sliding doors to the deck. Upstairs, the primary bedroom has dual closets and connects directly to the full hall bathroom with an anti-fog mirror. A lower-level family room and second full bathroom provide additional living space. Outside, enjoy a fenced backyard and storage shed, with a park across the street and baseball and soccer fields behind the property. The roof, siding, and gutters were replaced in 2019 and all windows were replaced in 2023. Some TLC is needed, but the updates provide a great starting point for your own ideas. Nearby schools, daycare and Metra add to the convenience. The fireplace has not been used by the seller and is being sold as-is.
