Description

Wonderfully cared for and cute as a button East Side gem. You will be welcomed home by the sweet landscaping and lush greenery. Step onto the porch and walk through the red door, which traditionally signifies good luck, into the coziest little house. Enjoy hardwood floors and a gas fireplace in the living room. There are so many updates, including new siding, new windows, updated kitchen and new paint. The two bedrooms both have fabulous natural light with windows on 2 walls. The full bath has a matching arch above the shower that matches the rest of the house arches. The kitchen has been updated with new range/oven, microwave, new sink and the addition of a dishwasher, new counter top and back splash. Beyond the kitchen is the butler’s pantry with space for storage and additional prep. The kitchen area leads to the adorable fenced in back yard or go down the stairs to the basement. The basement has great dry storage and the laundry. The garage is a no car garage, great for lawn toys, bikes, scooters and gardening supplies. Close to the bus stop on Kirkwood, easy access to U of I, UIHC, downtown and more. Please allow 24hr response time.
