Residential Land with Home for Sale in Chester, Illinois
7 Knollwood Dr, Chester, IL 62233
This is a beautifully built home in a great location sitting on 4.86 acres. Currently needs quite a bit of TLC (a roof has been quoted) and repair but could be gorgeous again. It is priced accordingly. As you enter the circle paved drive, this one sits off the main road perfectly. There is a 2 car garage on the east side of the home. Walking into the grand two-story foyer, your breath is taken away. To the left is a formal living room with a wood burning fireplace and from there you enter the formal dining room. If you go to the right, you will find a half bath, the large eat-in kitchen and the washer/dryer is in the closet off the kitchen hidden behind doors. From there you can enter the large den/family room. Two bedrooms are at the end of the hall and another full-bathroom. There are several entrances to the courtyard in the back of the home where you find nothing but serenity and peaceful woods. Upstairs there are two very large bedrooms (one has a fireplace) and 2 more bathrooms. A full basement gives a lot of storage. This one is priced for it's updating and repair needs. The owners of this home had it built to their specifications. It was quite the showpiece home in 1975 when built. Come and make an offer on this one. The sellers have passed on and it's time for this one to be brought back to it's intended glory.
