Property Description

Charming and easy to love, this single-story home sits in one of South Hammond's most sought-after pockets- and the location may be the best part. It stands four blocks north of the new South Hammond South Shore Line station, putting downtown Chicago's Millennium Station within a comfortable train ride and no parking bill. Prefer to drive? Hammond borders Chicago, and the Loop is roughly 25 miles up the Skyway. Here's what sets this one apart: it's been completely rewired, fitted with modern insulated windows, and topped with a brand-new roof- already done! The AC, furnace, and water heater are all recent too, so the big-ticket systems aren't a concern here. A stacked brick fireplace anchors the living room and works perfectly. Inside, 1,008 square feet of easy one-level living with 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath. Below, a full unfinished basement adds real storage, laundry and workshop space, plus room to grow. Buying in Hammond comes with two rare perks. First-time buyers may qualify for the city's Homebound Program, offering significant down payment assistance. And families with school-age kids can look into Hammond's College Bound Scholarship- a program that can cover the entire college tuition for students who grow up in a Hammond homeowner's household. Buyer to verify eligibility and terms for both programs with the city. A starter home in a location that's hard to duplicate. Schedule your showing today!!
