About This Home
As of March 2023Nothing says "HOME SWEET HOME" better than a charming Cape Cod typified by clean lines, compact proportions, hardwood floors, wide moulding, solid wood doors, and a big grassy backyard! Welcome to 618 Lincoln Avenue, a 2 Bedroom 1.1 Bath home nestled on a tree lined street on Elgin's East side! Main floor living spaces include a generous sized living room with a cozy window seat anchored by custom built-ins perfect for your personal home library; a dining room; a sunny galley style kitchen with great views of the DEEP FENCED BACKYARD peppered with mature trees, and a brick paver patio great for summer barbecues. A full hall bath with pedestal sink, and Bedroom 1 completes the main floor.. The second level features Bedroom 2 with classic coved ceilings; a tiny yet functional half bath; and a walk in closet that could easily flex as a fun play space or pretend 'fort' for your littles; and access to an unfinished attic space. The unfinished basement offers a laundry room with a vintage concrete double utility sink; a walk in shelved closet for extra pantry space plus a cedar closet perfect for off season clothing. Side door from the kitchen opens to the driveway that leads to detached one car garage. Sellers have loved the great neighbors, convenient shopping, close proximity to charming downtown Elgin, the library, Rec Center, and easy access to I 90. A SWEET HOME AWAITS ITS NEW OWNERS! List of Improvements Includes: Updated electric, windows, gas forced air heat and central air conditioning, and water heater (2009), dishwasher (2021), microwave with upper cabinet (2021), electrical for dryer (2021). **Sellers taking washer & dryer
