Solid 2 bedroom/1 bath home in quiet neighborhood close to Prairie Central Upper Elementary School in Forrest with easy access to Rt 47. This home just needs some cosmetic updates. Large entry/front room could be a den, family room, office/media room, playroom or it could be enclosed for a small 3rd bedroom. Nice sized living room and separate dining room with pass-through from kitchen makes serving guests a breeze. Large kitchen with pantry cabinets for added storage and room for a table/chairs. Full basement has a room with a closet at the bottom of the stairs, a main room, a separate large workshop room, a large laundry/utility room and storage room. Extra deep 24 x 30 insulated 2 car detached garage with gas line for a heater to be installed and a new roof in 2021 has entrance off the blacktop alleyway. This is a great buy and won't be on the market for long. Home is being sold in "as is" condition.
