ALMOST 1 ACRE OF UNINCORPORATED DES PLAINES with cottage and room for over 15 cars plus four garage spaces! Welcome to this one-of-a-kind property on a sprawling 0.92-acre unincorporated lot. This residence is ideal for those seeking a multi-generational living arrangement, a dedicated home business, car enthusiast, or anyone seeking a large property with many possibilities! The main house features 1928 square feet with 4 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms. The open-concept living and dining areas are perfect for entertaining, while the well-appointed kitchen has been updated with newer white cabinets and granite counters. The basement offers additional living space but requires new flooring. In addition to the main house, the property includes two spacious 2 car garages, offering abundant parking and storage options. Whether you have multiple vehicles, need a workshop, or simply want extra space for your hobbies, these garages have you covered. A standout feature of this property is the separate 962-square-foot building, which is perfect for a home office, studio, or guest suite for someone willing to put work into it. This versatile space offers endless possibilities but requires rehab. The expansive lot provides plenty of outdoor space, and with its unincorporated status, you have the flexibility to customize the property to suit your needs.
