Exceptional Value-Add Investment Opportunity! Solid 6-unit all-brick apartment building in the heart of South Elgin offering tremendous upside potential. The property features five spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath units, each approximately 700 sq. ft., with a bright living room, oversized eat-in kitchen with dining area, full bath, and generously sized bedrooms. The sixth unit is a studio apartment conveniently located on the lower level adjacent to the laundry room. Current rental rates are substantially below market value, creating an exceptional opportunity for investors to maximize returns through future rental increases. Comparable rental properties in the area command significantly higher rents, making this an ideal asset for value-add investors seeking long-term appreciation and increased cash flow. Additional income potential is provided by the on-site coin-operated laundry room featuring one washer, one dryer, and a bill change machine. The building is heated by a hot water boiler system with individual heat controls in each unit, while tenants pay their own electric, helping keep operating expenses low. The lower level includes a dedicated manager's room with a security camera monitoring system, providing added security and efficient property management. Durable all-brick construction offers long-term ownership with lower maintenance costs. Ideally located near shopping, dining, parks, schools, public transportation, and major commuter routes, this property continues to benefit from strong rental demand. Perfect for seasoned investors, first-time multifamily buyers, or 1031 exchange purchasers looking to add a high-potential asset to their portfolio. With the opportunity to reposition rents to market levels, increase net operating income, and build substantial equity, this property presents an outstanding investment opportunity rarely available in today's market. Strong tenant demand, low-maintenance construction, multiple income streams, and exceptional rental upside make 409 Ann St. a compelling addition to any real estate portfolio. Investment opportunities with this level of future income growth and value appreciation are becoming increasingly scarce.

Century old charm meets modern convenience and piece of mind!!! Nothing to do but move into this beautiful home that has been lovingly updated and maintained by it's long time owners. There is more than enough space for a large family with 5 bedrooms, two full and two half bathrooms. As you step inside, you are greeted by tall 9' plus ceilings both downstairs and upstairs. Maintenance free, wood laminate floors throughout, period correct custom mill work with 9" baseboards. The amazing kitchen features hand built, custom cabinetry and there is a ton of it which means lots of counter space for meal prepping as well as hosting large gatherings. A huge pantry cabinet for additional storage and a wet bar/beverage area round out this space. The main floor has a bedroom/office and a full bathroom so someone that only wants to deal with a couple of steps would have that option. Upstairs you'll find the master bedroom with a large walk in closet as well as it's own private 1/2 bathroom. Three additional bedrooms, a full bath and 2nd floor laundry for the utmost convenience. Make your way down to the basement which is not your typical "100 plus year old" kind of space.... it's bright, dry, has some finished/partitioned walls and ceiling as well as a 1/2 bathroom (which could easily be finished into a full bathroom) so if you needed even more living space, there is certainly the potential to transform this space into just that!! Outside you won't want to miss the classic, covered front porch complete with porch swing. In the back there is a deck for relaxing or grilling as well as plenty of yard space for pets or kids to play. The detached garage is a hobbyist's dream...... oversized, heated, insulated and has a full walk up loft area. There is also a large carport off to the side to protect your vehicles/equipment from the elements. And if the ridiculous amount of storage this house and garage already have isn't enough.... the shed offers even more storage. Roof is 3 years old and all windows were replaced over the past 10-15 years. Water heater replaced in 2020. Just steps away from beautiful Seba park and Panton Mill park on the west bank of the Fox River where you can enjoy summer concerts, cruise nights and other events!!! Close to schools, shopping and dining...... Welcome Home!!
