About This Home

As the old saying goes...Location Location Location! You can change a house but you cannot change where it is located or the lot it sits on! This home is located on a tree lined street, large corner lot with a fully fenced back yard and across from Countryside Park. This home has a newer Roof (house and garage 2022/23) and the HVAC is believed to have been replaced within the last 3 years as well. Its a rare opportunity for you to re-imagine, customize and make it your own for years of love, laughter and lifelong memories. The Park offers a walking path, tennis courts, sand volley ball, tot lot and work out station along the walking path. Countryside is really a perfect landing spot for someone commuting to the City or suburbs. Being centrally located, you are less than 3 miles to two BNSF Metra Train stations taking you into Chicago in less than 30 minutes. About a 20-30 minute drive to O'Hare or Midway Airports and short distance to major highways I55, I294, I290 or Rt83. Not to mention all of the local amenities Countryside has to offer! Great City services, low Countryside taxes and shopping from family owned small businesses to big box stores and restaurants. Check out the floor plans to help you re-imagine the space or update as it is. The lower level is dry. There is a large concrete patio in back and large covered concrete porch in the front. The extra large garage is divided with 2 car parking. Behind a divider wall is a storage closet, workshop room and large storage room. (Could possibly be converted into 2/3 more tandem car/toy space). **take a closer look at the garage drone shots** NOTE:This home is an estate sale and being conveyed as-is. Buyer will be responsible for all City of Countryside inspection requirements. **Realtors see Private Broker remarks**
