About this home

Opportunity knocks in desirable Oakbrook! This 3-bedroom, 2-bath rambler offers 1,528 sq. ft. of single-level living on a nearly 10,000 sq. ft. lot, with plenty of potential for the next owner to make it their own. Inside, you'll find a functional floor plan, original character and hardwood floors that have stood the test of time. The home offers a solid starting point for buyers looking to build equity and create a space that reflects their own style. A detached garage is connected to the home by an enclosed breezeway, adding useful, covered space and flexibility. Out back, the additional finished outbuilding is ready to become a home office, studio, hobby room, "she shed" or "man cave," while a separate garden/storage shed provides even more room for tools and outdoor gear. Located in established Oakbrook, close to neighborhood amenities, parks, shopping and Oakbrook Golf Club. Priced at $490,000 you're going to walk in with equity. Bring your ideas and see the potential—this is a chance to get into Oakbrook, add your own improvements and make this longtime home your own.
