Hardwood floors run throughout this 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home at 120 W Eisenhower St in Waterman, Illinois - a DeKalb County small town in the Indian Creek School District (CUSD 425), with quick access to Route 30 and Route 23 and about 20 minutes to DeKalb and Sycamore. The 1,600-square-foot main level centers on those original hardwoods, and the sunroom features a heated tile floor (2015) that keeps it comfortable through Illinois winters. The big-ticket updates are already done: a complete electrical rewire including a new panel (2015), central air conditioning (2019), updated bathroom tile (2015), and a new insulated garage door (2015) on the attached heated one-car garage. The full basement is where this home separates from others at this price. An egress window has been added, bringing natural light and an emergency exit. A second full bathroom is being completed downstairs prior to closing, and the rest of the space is well underway - most of the drywall is already hung, needing only the remaining drywall, taping, and finishing before flooring goes in. You're inheriting the end of a project, not the start of one - with the egress window, bathroom, and most drywall in place, the finished lower level could function as a family room, home office, or potential fourth bedroom at a fraction of what finished square footage costs to buy. Outside, the 0.26-acre lot offers a large backyard with room for gardens, play, or entertaining. Two full bathrooms, a full basement, and major systems updated - in a price range where many Waterman and southern DeKalb County homes offer one bath and a crawl space.
