Highest and best called for my 6pm Saturday, July 3rd** Are you in the trades and looking for a great location to park your trucks and tools? Need a shop for your business? Check out this unique property situated in a convenient location on the near west side of Elgin! This property includes a home that is currently tenant occupied. The home has 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath on the tenant occupied main floor. The kitchen has plenty of cabinets and room for a table. The Living Room is spacious as well. The back part of the Living Room was a bedroom at one point, so this could easily be a 3 bedroom home. The tenant also has access rights to half of the basement with laundry downstairs. The other half of the basement has a half bath and an exterior entrance, so if someone wanted to buy this for the shop in the back, they could have access to the other half of the basement for storage and a bathroom. And then there's the shop! This is the star of this property! It has 2 oversized doors and could easily fit 4-6 cars or several work trucks. And there would still be room for a workshop. This heated space could be used year-round. So if you're looking just for the shop space, you could keep the current tenant to subsidize the monthly cost, this is the place!
