About This Home

Rare opportunity to acquire a permitted, partially-renovated home in the heart of Elmhurst - one of Chicagoland's most sought-after suburbs - with the hard work already done and serious upside waiting. Comparable renovated homes in the immediate area are selling for $800K-$1M+, and this property is primed to join them. The heavy lifting is complete: new roofs on both the house and garage, full gut to the studs, new framing, and over $30,000 invested in a new storm drain and water main installed beneath an IDOT road - infrastructure work that would otherwise fall to the next buyer. Permits and approved plans are in place, and the city has signed off on a 4+1 bedroom, 3 bathroom configuration - unlocking maximum livable square footage and resale value. The three-level floor plan offers exceptional flexibility, with a detached 2-car garage and a large lot steps from Field Elementary, Sandburg Middle, York High School, downtown Elmhurst, the Metra, restaurants, and expressway access. Deep 164 x 56 lot providing extra space for expansion potential, recreation and plenty of parking. Side drive with turnaround space for easy access to North Ave. Whether you're a seasoned fix-and-flipper looking to finish on your terms, an investor adding a high-return asset to your portfolio, or an owner-occupant ready to build your dream home with custom finishes from scratch - the bones, permits, and approvals are all here. The vision is set. The potential is real. All that's left is the finish. Take advantage of the most competitively-priced single family home on the market in Dist 205!
