Think about an artist's "blank canvas". This Mediterranean style home just needs some of the designer's original artistic concepts to shine again, in a Big way! Ranch style one level homes are at a premium & here is a large one on a large lot!! This home is solid & well-built but frankly with somewhat of an outdated interior. Let's not tear it down, let's just redesign, remodel & rehab it and then show it off! Start with an enclosed front courtyard area reminiscent of a Portugal "Patio". Your entry foyer opens to a 20 x 16 vaulted ceiling Great Room (floor to ceiling windows) that begs for a decorator's grand touches! The Chef's kitchen just needs that dynamic makeover to the specs of the Cook(s)! An adjoining Family Room W/Fireplace & a separate Dining Room complete the generous living & entertaining area. Are you looking for a "sweat equity" project or maybe as a rehabber you are ready for your next investment. Homes in this area with smaller SF have sold for considerably more! Let's talk the "bones" of this structure. Solid brick all the way around. Deep pour basement (2,000+ SF unfinished) with some framing already in place. Hardwood Flooring in many of the rooms. 3 large bedrooms including a Master Bedroom that is 22 x 13. Circular cement driveway & Large 2 car garage. First floor laundry. Back yard patio area offers space for that outdoor kitchen. The yard is nearly one-half acre with many mature trees & space for a pool, game court or a Bags Tournament! The location is top notch and it's a short walk to Addison Trail High School. Easy accessibility to shopping, the airport, I355 & I90 yet.......located in a quiet neighborhood subdivision of owners with pride in their homes (Trails Estates)! The original Builder of this home was Don Sholtz, one of the leaders of the mid-century concept of showplace homes (Google his name). Enter this home with an eye to what it could be! Owner is looking for an "As-Is" contract as this is an Estate sale.
