Cute, cozy, affordable, and thoughtfully updated, this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home makes the most of its 718 square feet. With numerous improvements completed over the last several years, it's truly move-in ready and designed for practicality. Step inside to a freshly painted interior featuring newer laminate flooring in the living room. The fully applianced kitchen offers stainless steel appliances (all replaced within the last five years), oak cabinetry, a new faucet, and a movable pantry for flexible storage. The refrigerator can easily be repositioned to create space for a dining table, or the living room can comfortably serve as a combined living and dining area. Both bedrooms feature laminate flooring and beautiful new wood doors. The full bathroom, conveniently located between the bedrooms, has been updated with a new tub surround. A mudroom provides access to both the backyard and the basement, where you'll find the laundry area (washer and dryer less than eight years old) along with plenty of storage. Outside, enjoy a fully fenced backyard that's perfect for pets, gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing. The detached 1.5-car garage offers room for vehicles, hobbies, and additional storage. Major improvements-including the furnace, air conditioner, water heater, and roof-have already been completed, giving the next owner added peace of mind. Additional updates include: furnace and dryer vent (2020), water heater (2022), air conditioner (2023), gutters and front slab/sidewalk leveling (2024), roof (2025), and in 2026: interior paint, living room flooring, kitchen faucet, kitchen window, tub surround, bathroom sink, and bedroom doors. Whether you're purchasing your first home, downsizing, or adding to your investment portfolio, this thoughtfully updated home offers comfortable living, low-maintenance ownership, and a convenient location near shopping, dining, schools, NIU, medical facilities, parks, recreation, and I-88.
