Normal, IL 61761 111 Riss Drive

Located in the desirable Pleasant Hills neighborhood just minutes from Uptown Normal, this solid 3 bedroom 1.5 bath all brick ranch combines classic charm with major potential. The curb appeal is already dialed in thanks to fresh landscaping and a composite deck that makes the exterior feel both polished and low maintenance. Inside, the layout is practical and inviting.

The kitchen offers generous cabinet space and strong potential to be opened up or re-imagined with a modern design. All three bedrooms are well sized. The full bath features double sinks and the primary bedroom has its own private half bath. While the finishes could use a refresh, the home itself offers a solid blank canvas.
