Property Description
The square footage here tells only part of the story. Beyond the 2,058-square-foot main level, this Portage home holds a sprawling partially finished basement -- complete with a built-in bar, cabinetry, and enough open floor space to imagine almost anything -- plus a full upper loft that runs nearly the entire roofline, already insulated with R-19, electric ran, and framed into 2 rooms. All told, the combined footprint across all three levels reaches approximately 6,088 square feet of potential. Both bonus spaces are mid-renovation, which means the next owner gets to finish them their way, not work around someone else's choices. The attached heated garage fits up to six vehicles, making this a rare find for hobbyists, collectors, or anyone who needs serious storage. Outside, 0.65 acres of flat, tree-lined yard gives the whole property room to breathe. This is a home that rewards vision in a quiet Portage neighborhood with easy access to US-20, the Tollway, and the south shore's parks and trails.
