About This Home

This charming bungalow showcases Craftsman inspired details while offering the space and updates today's buyers appreciate. With 4 bedrooms, 2.75 bathrooms, and a partially finished full basement, there's plenty of room for everyday living, entertaining, and everything in between. Many of the big ticket improvements have already been completed, including a new roof, siding, gutters, and central air conditioning in 2026. The detached garage received a new roof and gutters as well. Most of the upper level has been freshly painted, several windows have been replaced, and both primary bedroom windows will be replaced prior to closing. Inside, the spacious living room is anchored by a stunning floor to ceiling stone fireplace and filled with natural light. Attractive flooring throughout much of the main level, original woodwork, a separate dining room, and an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, abundant cabinet space, and a bright breakfast nook create a home that's both functional and full of character. Four generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide plenty of space for family and guests. The laundry shute helps make the laundry process more efferent. The partially finished basement adds even more flexibility with a large family room, a 3/4 bathroom, laundry area, and plenty of storage, workshop, or hobby space. For added confidence, the foundation has been inspected by a licensed contractor with no structural concerns found, and a new basement window well is currently being installed. Relax on the welcoming covered front porch or enjoy the spacious backyard with plenty of room to entertain, garden, or play. The detached two-car garage offers additional storage and workspace. Conveniently located on Kankakee's west side, you'll be just minutes from Bird Park with its fishing pond, playground, and walking paths, as well as nearby Governor Small Memorial Park. Shopping, restaurants, Interstate 57, both area hospitals, and public and private school options are all close by. If you've been looking for a home that offers classic character, functional living space, and many of the major updates already completed, this one deserves a look.
