About this home

Desirable in-town location across from popular Vattmann Park and blocks to Metra, McKenzie School, and vibrant downtown Wilmette restaurants and shopping. Incredible investor opportunity on a deep 50x200 lot. Property is currently configured as a two-flat, with potential to convert to a single-family home or build new. Welcoming front porch leads into two spacious units, each offering 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a sunroom, pantry, living room and dining room. The property also features a lovely backyard, alley-access to garage and exterior space parking, an unfinished walk-up attic, and an unfinished basement. First-floor unit has been recently updated with new kitchen cabinets, counters, flooring, and a newer bathroom. The second-floor unit has been occupied by the same tenant for 18 years. Current rents are below market value and do not reflect the property's full income potential. Tenant occupied, showing notice required. Survey and floor plans available under Additional Information.
