August 21, 2024

This house looks like a diamond in the rough! The price is very reasonable. The house was built in 1952. It is located on .92 acre in Decatur, Illinois. The house looks sprawling! I like piano up on the raised pedestal. Would be a great house to take back o the midcentury modern feel. The house was designed by an Illinois architect. Three bedrooms, three bathrooms and ,2,300 square feet. $125,000
