About This Home

Lovely ranch on Waukegan's north side in a sought-after neighborhood! Truly much larger than it appears, this home offers 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a spacious, versatile layout filled with possibilities. The main floor features a welcoming formal living room, a large kitchen with eating area, and an oversized family room with plenty of space to gather, relax, and entertain. Continue downstairs to the partially finished basement, where even more living space awaits! A bonus room offers great potential for a 3rd bedroom, home office, playroom, workout room, or whatever best fits your needs, with additional space for entertaining and storage. All major mechanicals have been well maintained, providing a solid foundation for the next owner to simply bring their ideas and personal touches. Outside, enjoy the deck for relaxing, grilling, or summer gatherings, along with a detached garage and ample parking. With fresh paint, new carpet, and a little vision, this home could truly shine! A diamond in the rough with more space than meets the eye, endless potential, and a wonderful opportunity to make it your own. Come see the possibilities and schedule your showing today!
