240 W Wilson Street
Opportunity awaits at this classic 1929 bungalow ideally situated just blocks from vibrant downtown Palatine, the Metra station, restaurants, parks, and local shopping. Full of original character and ready for its next chapter, this home offers a chance for investors, renovators, or owner-occupants with vision to restore and personalize a property in one of Palatine's most desirable in-town locations. Original hardwood flooring and windows remain, reflecting the home's historic charm, while the original kitchen presents an opportunity for thoughtful modernization. The property is livable but in need of significant updating and is being offered in its current condition. Several important improvements have already been completed, including a roof replacement (2017), chimney rebuild and repairs, updated electrical service, concrete driveway installation, tuckpointing (2020), fencing (2020), new garage siding, new gutters, and a French drain system to improve backyard drainage (2025). A rare opportunity to invest in an established neighborhood where renovated homes continue to command strong interest. Bring your ideas and unlock the potential of this well-located Palatine bungalow.
