Description

Yes you can OWN A HOME to live in for almost $112,000! Take a look inside this MOSTLY BRICK HOME. The LIVING ROOM is rather spacious with it being OPEN TO THE DINING ROOM. The common floor covering blends the 2 rooms into 1 LARGER ROOM. The kitchen is almost LARGE ENOUGH for a table and is large enough to prepare the food for all residents. Down a short hallway are 2 BEDROOMS and a full bathroom. BOTH BEDROOMSs are RATHER LARGE with good size closets. Behind the kitchen is the ENCLOSED PORCH for you to unwind on. Then there is the SPACIOUS BACK YARD which leads back to the 1 CAR GARAGE to keep your car off the street. The BASEMENT is unfinished waiting for you to add YOUR VISION of leaving it unfinished or ADDING A FAMILY ROOM for a second living area. A few blocks away is one of the few RIVERFRONT HISTORIC DISTRICTS, the Riverview Historic District and just a few short blocks away from the CROWN JEWEL PARK of Kankakee! Nearby are 2 RIVERFRONT PARKS with walking trails, 8 tennis courts, 3 PICKLEBALL COURTS, shuffleboard and more.
