Attention first time homebuyers, empty nesters and Northwestern faculty and students, you can buy this home in tony Northwest Evanston for the price of some 2-bedroom condos.
Not yet on the MLS and no sign in front, (you’re hearing it first here), this 3 bedroom/2 bath vintage home has hardwood floors, a fireplace, a new tear-off roof, built-in bookshelves, a finished walk-out basement with a full newly refinished bathroom, central air, a patio and deck, updated mechanicals, a side driveway for two cars and charming red-brick pavers leading to the front door.
Enjoy the summer block parties – walk two blocks to the Ladd Arboretum, the McCormick hiking trail along the river, a new park, Kingsley Elementary, Haven Middle School and the forest preserve. The Central Street shops and library are only a short four-block walk. The Metra is about 5 blocks.
This home is a great condo alternative. And for NU students, it’s a nice investment – just rent the upstairs bedrooms or the basement, then sell when you graduate. Ask about my Wildcard Advantage discount.
