645 Haish Boulevard Dekalb, IL 60115
So much charm and history await in this cozy, updated Cape Cod! For those who appreciate local history, the original title to the land dates back to 1848. The home was relocated to its current site around the turn of the century and has been lovingly maintained and updated over the years. Enjoy summer evenings and morning coffee on the inviting front porch before stepping inside to the living room with hardwood floors and abundant natural light. All windows throughout the home have been replaced within the last two years, enhancing both comfort and energy efficiency. The spacious living room offers flexibility for a small home office or an intimate dining area. The main-floor primary bedroom features French doors, large new windows, and plenty of natural sunlight. The remodeled kitchen (2018) blends modern convenience with timeless character, offering abundant cabinetry, updated appliances, table space, and easy access to the backyard. The original pantry has been preserved, adding a wonderful touch of historic charm. Just two steps up, you'll find the updated main-floor bath featuring a clawfoot tub/shower combination, double vanity, and new flooring. An additional main-level office provides excellent flexibility and could potentially be converted into a laundry/mudroom space. Upstairs are two bedrooms with original hardwood flooring, while the full basement provides ample storage. Outside, the fully fenced backyard offers privacy and plenty of room for outdoor enjoyment, whether for children, pets, or gardening. A detached one-car garage with alley access completes the property. Numerous updates include: roof (2009), furnace (2012), kitchen remodel and fence (2018), refrigerator and smart thermostat (2019), smart washer and dryer (2021), dishwasher, central air, foundation sealing, and fresh main-level paint (2026), plus new windows throughout (2025-2026). Enjoy low property taxes and a convenient location near schools, shopping, downtown DeKalb, NIU, dining, medical facilities, recreation, and easy access to the tollway. Don't miss this opportunity to own a charming piece of DeKalb history! Showings begin Sunday, June 7, 2026.
