About This Home
Don't miss this exceptional redevelopment opportunity! This 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch sits on a large 0.29-acre lot and offers 960 sq ft of living space-ideal for someone ready to refresh and reimagine. With plenty of space and potential, this property is a blank canvas, perfect for a creative mind to customize it and bring new life to the space. Location is key: You'll be minutes from parks such as Fairview Park (with trails, pond, skating and a pool) and Oak Grove Park, plus you're part of the network of greenspaces managed by the Decatur Park District. This means access to a variety of recreational areas, walking paths and family-friendly outdoor options. The oversized lot gives ample space for yard expansions, outdoor entertaining or even an added structure. For developers or experienced investors seeking significant upside through an extensive renovation or rebuild, 905 W Packard St offers both location and potential. This could also be a great opportunity to tear down and create a dream home. Schedule your showing and bring your vision to life!
