About This Home
Welcome to 1702 N Lawndale, a rare gem on an extra-wide, corner lot just steps from the 606 Trail. This beautifully restored 5-bedroom, 2.1-bath home blends timeless architectural charm with thoughtful, modern updates. From the moment you step onto the inviting front porch and through the stunning carved wood front door, you're welcomed by a bright, airy interior filled with warmth, natural light, and classic Chicago character. Inside, the home boasts newly refinished hardwood floors, 10 ceilings, and elegant details including wide baseboards, five-panel doors, and arched openings that add a graceful flow from room to room. The spacious living and dining areas are perfect for entertaining, framed by oversized windows that flood the space with sunlight. At the heart of the home is a completely renovated kitchen featuring crisp white cabinetry, butcher block counters, brass hardware, a deep farmhouse sink, and stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, including a primary with a walk-in closet - the upstairs bathroom channels vintage elegance with a clawfoot tub, pedestal sink, and classic tile. The lower level includes a 5th bedroom, a large rec room, a full bath, and additional storage. But the crown jewel of this property is the expansive, fully fenced side yard-an exceptionally rare feature in the city. Surrounded by mature trees and lush landscaping, it's an ideal setting for outdoor dining and gardening. A charming brick patio and additional green space in the front yard provide more room to enjoy. Perfectly situated on a quiet, tree-lined street with unbeatable access to parks, transit, and the buzz of Logan Square and Humboldt Park, this home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Chicago history with space to grow.
