01About this home

Welcome to this beautifully maintained and move-in ready home located at 1205 N Prairie Ave in Joliet! This charming 3-bedroom residence offers a perfect blend of updates, functionality, and opportunity for personalization. Step inside to find new LVT flooring throughout the entire first floor, creating a fresh and modern feel. The updated kitchen and bathroom provide both style and convenience, while all appliances-just 5 years old or newer-are included for a truly turnkey experience. A unique highlight is the custom cloud ceiling in the first-floor bedroom, complete with backlit smart Govee mood lighting, adding a one-of-a-kind ambiance. Upstairs, you'll find a spacious bedroom featuring a partially finished walk-in closet that offers flexible use as a home office, nursery, or playroom. The home also boasts a clean, dry, partially finished full basement with a large storage area and an additional half bath-ready for your finishing touches. Major exterior updates were completed in 2019, including roof, siding, gutters, fascia, and soffits on both the home and the 2.5-car garage. The garage is insulated and drywalled, featuring a MyQ smart opener for added convenience. Enjoy outdoor living in the private, fully fenced backyard with a patio-perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The home offers abundant storage throughout. Conveniently located near local amenities including parks, schools, shopping, and dining. Just minutes from Inwood Park, Louis Joliet Mall, and easy access to major highways including I-80 and I-55 for commuting. Close proximity to University of St. Francis and Joliet Junior College adds additional value. Don't miss this opportunity to own a solid home with great updates and even more potential in a convenient Joliet location! This is a very clean, well-cared-for home, however, due to seller relocation, the property is being conveyed AS-IS. However, Basement Foundation Repairs have been contracted and will be completed prior to closing with transferrable lifetime warranty.
