01About this home

Rarely does a property like this hit the market in Elgin! This meticulously maintained one-owner ranch is packed with character, space, flexibility, and features you simply do not see every day. Offering 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and sitting on an oversized double lot right next to the alley, this property gives you something everyone wants but few homes actually have... room to breathe. No neighbor directly beside you means extra privacy and extra possibilities. Located just minutes from Wing Park, shopping, restaurants, and everyday conveniences, the location is truly hard to beat. But it's the lot and outdoor setup that make this home unforgettable. The detached workshop with electric was designed to match the home and is perfect for hobbyists, remote work space, woodworking, projects, storage, a future business setup, or your own personal escape. Need a man cave? Done. Dreaming of a she shed? Absolutely. Want both? Honestly... this property might let you. Car enthusiasts, truck lovers, hobbyists, and anyone needing serious storage space will also appreciate the oversized tandem garage with extra height, making it ideal for taller vehicles, additional storage, workshop space, or all the toys that never seem to fit in a standard garage. Outside, the fenced garden area is a dream for gardeners, flower lovers, or anyone who appreciates a little backyard magic. Complete with two pear trees, an additional shed, and tons of usable outdoor space, this yard offers possibilities that are nearly impossible to find in town. Inside, the retro kitchen cabinets are the kind of cool character people spend thousands trying to recreate today. They add warmth, charm, and personality you just can't fake. The home has been lovingly cared for over the years, and it shows in every corner, including a roof that's approximately five years new. Downstairs, you'll find a second kitchen setup where the previous oven was removed, but can easily be added back for related living, entertaining, or expanded functionality. This isn't your cookie-cutter ranch. It's the kind of home people wait for... solid, lovingly maintained, full of personality, and sitting on a lot that makes you stop and say, "Wait... this is all part of the property?"
