Desperately Seeking *Visionaries* (and Those Who Love a Challenge)! Ready to turn a diamond in the rough into the crown jewel of South Elgin? This 3-Bed, 2-Bath Ranch is calling all dreamers, doers, and renovation warriors looking for the ultimate fixer-upper challenge. With over 1200 sq ft of solid potential, this place is primed for a major glow-up-where the only thing more dramatic than the Fox River views is the sheer potential waiting for your vision (and a few contractors). Situated on a .28-acre lot, this home is conveniently located right next to city-owned parkland, so you can enjoy kayaking, biking, fishing, and relaxing in your own private slice of nature. The home? Well, it's ready for a new chapter. New kitchen appliances? Yes, please. TWO bathroom remodels? Totally needed. And don't forget the oversized 2-car detached garage for all your storage and project needs. Flood insurance may be required if you're getting a loan (but let's be real, this home has never seen a flood-unless you're talking about your tears of joy when you finish your dream renovation).

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
