Description

This cute and cozy cottage is perfect for first-time buyers, those looking to downsize, or anyone seeking a low-maintenance home. It also offers great potential as a rental or Airbnb for those looking to grow their investment portfolios. The current owners lovingly call this home their "healing home," and it's easy to see why! Located in the Pattens Addition, this 1-bedroom, 1-bath cottage is within walking distance of downtown Sycamore. It's brimming with potential - just add some imagination and elbow grease and it can be yours to make cozy and personal! As you enter, you'll find an enclosed porch - perfect for a small dining area or a relaxing space with lovely views. The living room, located just off the porch, features a barn door for added privacy in the evenings. With natural light pouring in through the windows, this space also offers built-in bookshelves for extra storage and a cute electric fireplace for ambiance. The bedroom is spacious with a large closet and plenty of natural light. The cozy eat-in kitchen is fully applianced and has ample space for a makeshift banquette - perfect for meals or additional workspace. A good-sized pantry provides plenty of food storage. The bathroom, with everything you need, completes the main level. The basement offers plenty of potential to add extra living space -just waiting to be finished. The washer and dryer will remain with the home for your convenience. As is, it can be a great place for kids to play during the winter months. The spacious backyard is fully fenced, providing a peaceful retreat for family evenings or a haven for pets. Plus, there's a 1-car detached garage. Just minutes from Sycamore's vibrant downtown, shopping, dining, and with easy access to Plank Road and Peace Road for I-88, this home is perfectly situated. As an added bonus, it's within walking distance of the beautiful Blumen Gardens, making leisurely strolls a breeze. The roof on the house and garage, along with most mechanicals, were all replaced in 2006. Lead pipe intake replaced (2024). The lot is zoned as a two-family, offering the opportunity to build a duplex. This charming home offers so many possibilities - don't miss out!
