Located on a corner lot in East St. Louis, IL, 351 N 26th St offers 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and approximately 1,500 square feet of living space — all available through owner financing with just $3,000 down and $1,125 per month. No traditional bank loan required. This is a spacious home with room to grow, featuring generously sized rooms and the added convenience of a 2-car garage — a feature that's increasingly hard to find at this price point in the St. Louis Metro area. The corner lot provides extra outdoor space and natural light, and a playground sits directly across the street, making this an especially practical find for families. The location puts you within reach of some of East St. Louis's most recognized landmarks and resources. The Jackie Joyner-Kersee Community Center is nearby, as is the SIUE East St. Louis Center, MetroLink public transportation access for easy commuting into downtown St. Louis, and Malcolm W. Martin Memorial Park — one of the best spots in the region for unobstructed views of the Gateway Arch. Whether you work in St. Louis or prefer staying local, this location connects you to both sides of the metro with ease. This home is sold as-is and will need cleanup, repairs, and cosmetic improvements. One bathroom sink appears damaged and may need to be replaced. Buyers should plan accordingly and budget for renovation work. That said, the combination of a 2-car garage, corner lot, strong location, and accessible owner-financing terms makes this a compelling opportunity for a hands-on buyer ready to put in the work. If you've been priced out of traditional financing or simply prefer a more flexible path to homeownership, this East St. Louis property offers a real entry point into the St. Louis Metro market. ---
