REDUCED! Let's think out of the box! This property has a one bedroom but can be easily converted to a two bedroom. The inside staircase could be easily replaced, and you could add an additional 850 sq feet of living space in the back half of the downstairs area. The front half could be a commercial rental or a personal business. This building could be great for a Entrepreneur. This has been extensively remodeled with new roof, flooring, heating and air conditioning, and upper bathroom. Could be something said to be living downtown in historic Mt. Carroll which has the new Davis Center, remaking of the Shimer, new Library addition and many more new things to come. Seller would consider leasing. Owner is a Licensed Broker.
