Description

This brick ranch home is attractively located, and a rare find, in the desirable Washington Circle subdivision, only a 20 minute walk or 5 minute bike-ride to downtown Lake Forest with all its shops, restaurants, and Metra station. The front door opens into a sizeable living room featuring a woodburning fireplace centerpiece and a large picture window. There is value-add opportunity in the basement: finish the full basement to create a family room and office space -- there is already existing plumbing...This brick ranch home is attractively located, and a rare find, in the desirable Washington Circle subdivision, only a 20 minute walk or 5 minute bike-ride to downtown Lake Forest with all its shops, restaurants, and Metra station. The front door opens into a sizeable living room featuring a woodburning fireplace centerpiece and a large picture window. There is value-add opportunity in the basement: finish the full basement to create a family room and office space -- there is already existing plumbing (a toilet and stand up shower), an opportunity to add an additional bathroom at low cost. Detached, 2-car garage. Corner lot! Selling AS IS.
