Property Description

MOVE-IN READY 2BR RANCH WITH 576 SF HEATED GARAGE, 3-SEASON ROOM & EXTENSIVE UPDATES Exceptionally well-maintained 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch offering approximately 1,006 sq. ft. of living space on an approximately 8,973 sq. ft. lot in Machesney Park. Originally built in 1960, the home was expanded with permitted front and rear additions completed in 1993 and 1994. The current owner has proudly owned the property since 1971, providing more than five decades of continuous ownership, care, maintenance and thoughtful improvements. This is a property that has been cared for over generations rather than simply prepared for sale. One of the property's most exceptional features is the 24' x 24' insulated and heated Teslow 2-car garage, offering approximately 576 sq. ft. with a concrete floor and attic storage. The substantial garage provides far more than vehicle parking, with excellent space for a workshop, hobbies, equipment, projects and additional storage. It is a rare feature for a home of this size and price range. Connected to the garage is an 18' x 11' three-season porch with a concrete floor, offering approximately 198 sq. ft. of additional seasonal space. The Gatewood aluminum porch was installed in 2002, with windows replaced in 2010. The garage and porch create a versatile area that can be enjoyed for relaxing, entertaining, hobbies, storage or projects. The home has benefited from extensive maintenance and upgrades over the years, including a 2018 roof on the house and all buildings, new 2025 water heater, replaced HVAC system and ductwork, Alside 8 steel siding, whole-home Aprilaire humidifier, water softener and extensive blown-in attic insulation. These improvements provide buyers with confidence that many of the major ownership expenses have already been addressed. The property is connected to city water and city sewer, along with natural gas heating and water heating. Additional features include two Tuff storage sheds, both with electricity; partial privacy fencing in backyard; and a professionally constructed entry ramp installed in 2018. A 10' x 12' partial unfinished basement with exterior access provides convenient mechanical and storage space and is open to the crawlspace beneath the home. The basement houses the heating system, Aprilaire system, water softener and 2025 water heater. Inside, the home has been exceptionally maintained, including the flooring and living areas. All major appliances are included, along with the washer and dryer, making this a true move-in-ready opportunity. PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS: * 2 Bedrooms / 1 Bathroom * Approximately 1,006 Sq. Ft.
