About This Home

As of June 2022

Lovely two bedroom ranch on a sizable corner lot in desirable west Evanston near the Central Street shops and Old Orchard mall. Great for empty nesters/downsizers or for first time buyers looking to get into a highly sought after neighborhood. This home has been very well maitained and cared for with crown molding throughout, wainscoting in the dining room that also boasts a pitched ceiling, skylight and fireplace as well as French doors that lead into the galley kitchen. A second fireplace graces the living room alongside a lovely picture window with southern exposure and built in shelving. The finished basement has a half bath, walk in closet, (pool table will be included), plenty of storage, ceramic tiled floors, and a brand new beverage cooler that has never been used. The composite deck sits outside the dining room and connects to the lovely side yard that gardeners will appreciate. Many improvements over the past few years including: appliances in 2015, new roof in 2016, windows in 2018, kitchen tile and living room wood floors 2019, new concrete floor in garage 2020 and more (for full list see additional info)... We all know how hard ranches are to come by so don't let this one get away.
