5520 Harvard, Skokie IL 60077
Property Description
A Rarely Offered Mid-Century Gem- lovingly built by its original owner and cherished for 70 years. This authentic, modest ranch home is a time capsule of thoughtful design and enduring craftsmanship, set on a quarter-acre lot - larger than most in the neighborhood. With an attached garage, this home remains in original condition along with the furniture, some built by the owner, and shows few signs of wear and tear. The house sits at the end of the street, next to the buzz of I-90/94, yet the home's integrity and historical charm make it a standout opportunity for mid-century enthusiasts or renovators. A true legacy property - ready for its next chapter. The home is being sold As-Is.
