Welcome to this charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom ranch-style corner lot home nestled in the heart of central Stickney, Illinois. Perfectly suited as a starter home for first-time buyers or young families, this cozy single-story residence offers a solid foundation with room to personalize and grow into, all at an accessible price point in a welcoming suburban community just minutes from the vibrant energy of Chicago. Step inside to find a functional layout designed for easy living. The two bedrooms are conveniently located off the living room, each featuring elegant hardwood floors that add warmth and character. The large primary bedroom, situated off the family room at the back of the home, offers a peaceful retreat with its generous space. The bathroom provides a walk-in shower, vanity sink, and a medicine cabinet for convenient storage. The kitchen features classic wooden cabinetry, essential appliances including a refrigerator, stove, and dishwasher, and durable laminate flooring that's ready for your daily routines. Adjacent is a dedicated laundry room equipped with a washer and dryer, set against wood-paneled walls for a rustic touch. The spacious family area boasts exposed wooden beams on the ceiling, a cozy fireplace for those chilly winter evenings, and plush carpeting underfoot-ideal for gatherings or relaxing after a long day. Outside, the property shines with low-maintenance appeal. A detached garage provides secure parking and storage, while the backyard deck invites outdoor entertaining with space for seating, and a fenced yard. The front yard is neatly manicured with hedges and a concrete walkway leading to the inviting entry. This home is an excellent starter opportunity, offering the chance to build equity through cosmetic updates while enjoying immediate move-in readiness.
