SELLER WILL NOT LOOK AT ANY OFFERS UNTIL MONDAY 5/11/26. INVESTOR / REHAB OPPORTUNITY IN EVANSTON! Exceptional chance to restore and renovate this 3-bedroom, 1.1-bath single-family home located on a residential street in a strong Evanston location. The property offers approximately 1,174 square feet plus an unfinished basement and presents tremendous upside for investors, rehabbers, or buyers utilizing renovation financing. The home sustained significant damage from frozen pipes (pipes were not fixed & water is shut off) and requires a full interior renovation. All mechanical systems are currently inoperable. Exterior work and garage repairs are also needed. Due to the scope of work required, this property is best suited for cash buyers or renovation loans, however all offers will be submitted to the seller for review. Once renovated, this property has strong resale potential within the surrounding Evanston market. Great opportunity to customize finishes and maximize value in a highly desirable area. Property is being sold AS-IS, taxes 100% no survey will be provided. Buyer responsible for any inspections, repairs, and due diligence. DUAL AGENCY IS NOT PERMITTED BY THE LIST AGENT.
