Opportunity knocks! Spacious 2,799 sq ft ranch with partial English basement situated on approximately 1/2 acre just a few lots from the Rock River and backing to tree-lined farm fields, offering a rare combination of privacy, open views, and natural surroundings without being located in a designated flood zone. This property presents an excellent opportunity for investors, rehab buyers, or anyone looking to build equity with a functional layout, generous room sizes, multiple living areas, and solid bones ready for transformation. Some updates have already been started, including updated bathrooms and portions of hardwood flooring, providing a head start for the next owner. With vision and effort, this home can be brought back to its full potential. Previously improved with a 2.5-car detached garage, the property offers flexibility for future garage configuration, including the possibility of an attached design. Included appliances are washer, dryer, refrigerator, microwave, stove, and chest freezer, adding immediate value and convenience. Utilities include public water, septic system, natural gas (Nicor), and electric (ComEd). Enjoy nearby access to outdoor recreation such as fishing and boating along the Rock River while still being close to local shopping, dining, and everyday amenities. The open rear setting enhances the sense of space and privacy, creating a more secluded feel. Property is being sold as-is and requires cleanout and renovation; however, the size, setting, and overall potential make this a standout value-add opportunity. Properties offering this much square footage and land in a desirable location are hard to find at this price point. Don't miss your chance to transform this property into a beautiful home or profitable investment-schedule your showing today. Buyer to verify all room sizes.
