Property Description
A decades-long love story unfolds in this first-time-on-the-market ranch-style home. Built in 1949 by a pair of newlyweds, this home is much more than ordinary. Tucked away off 68th Street, near the US-131 corridor and just across from the Cutler Park, this property offers both privacy and convenience. You'll find yourself close to the Special Olympics Midwest Facility, shopping, churches, and a variety of community amenities—everything you need within easy reach. Modest in design yet meticulously cared for, this home stands as a testament to craftsmanship and pride of ownership. In addition, the adjoining lot provides a park-like setting and, with a zoning variance, could serve as a promising site for a new build. Inside, you'll find a welcoming great room with a wood-burning fireplace, three bedrooms, two full baths, a functional kitchen, and a ''gentleman's garage'' boasting 770 sq feet of storage space. Sellers are accepting VA and FHA financing.
