2518 Clayton Boulevard Champaign, IL 61822 • Residential - Single Family • Pending $244,900

Description

Single-level living in Parkland Ridge, walking distance to Parkland College and minutes from schools, dining, and shopping in west Champaign. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch gives you 1,800 square feet to spread out in, with spacious rooms throughout. The kitchen is a large galley layout that comfortably fits several people cooking or gathering at once, oak cabinets anchor the space, and it opens to a cheerful, inviting breakfast dining area with a view of Heritage Lake from the east-facing table. A separate formal dining room connects to the living room, which centers on a gas starting fireplace. Tile floors run through the kitchen and both baths. Step outside to mature trees in both the front and backyard, giving the lot shade and privacy most new construction can't match. The backyard is fenced with wood along with a separate chain-link enclosure ready for pets, plus a doghouse already in place. The sellers have already invested in tree pruning, tree removal, and fence and gate repairs. The price reflects the home's need for some updating, mainly carpet, which makes this a real opportunity for a renovation-minded buyer who wants sweat equity to translate into instant value. Sellers are offering a $5,000 carpet allowance. First-time buyers get a real garage and a real yard without a two-story price tag. Young families get a settled street in an established, mature neighborhood. Downsizers get one-level living without giving up the garage or the yard space they actually want to keep. Homes at this price point with a garage and a fenced yard in this neighborhood do not sit around. This one is worth a look.
