About This Home

As of May 2023

Cute home with wonderful 'Classic Curb Appeal' in the heart of Champaign... just 2 blocks from Eisner Park and close to shopping & restaurants too. Original hardwood floors inside (under carpet in other bedrooms too), updated kitchen & baths, brick wood-burning fireplace. This one has a bonus family room addition out back, plus an over-sized 2.5 garage and handy carport too where you can come in the side/kitchen entrance. Pride of ownership shows with this older 'charm & character' home that is move-in ready inside, and the front and backyard have many landscape updates that highlight the mature trees and feel from the private back patio overlooking the fenced yard. All kitchen appliances included in this sale (washer/dryer negotiable sep), flexible possession/closing, pre-inspected by Pristine Home Inspections (full copy available upon request). Priced for quick & clean-cut sale.... do not miss the nice home & excellent location!
