Step back to 1950 when a woman, previous owner, was flipping through a Better Homes and Gardens magazine and sees a beautiful home and said 'I want this house'! Thus, a mid-century gem was recreated here in the Golf Greenwood Garden subdivision in unincorporated Des Plaines. The current owner even has the original magazine and blueprints! Now it's your turn to restore this piece of history to its glory days! Yes, it needs updating, structural work in the breezeway and cracks in basement, but where can you find a brick home sitting on a park like yard between 1/4 and 1/2an acre? Hardwood floors, majestic fireplace, 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, kitchen overlooks the yard, screened room, 1 car garage w/new garage door opener 5/25. and shed for extra storage. Huge full basement ready for finishing, non-functioning 2nd kitchen, sump pump, some copper piping, updated electrical panel. Estate sale sold as-is with no credits. This pocket of Des Plaines has use of the Niles library, grade and middle school & Park ridge high school. Shopping galore on Milwaukee and Golf! Buy now!
