About This Home

As of February 2025

Move right in to this flawless home with huge kitchen in a near perfect location, just a few blocks north of the Irving Park el station in North Center. It is a very roomy 2 bedroom home, replete with front porch and rear deck, in a quiet stretch of the neighborhood, an area that is abundantly scattered with canopied streets and welcoming sidewalks. Charming is the home's understatement, with sleepy streets finding their way to Irving Park Rd to the south, a thoroughfare filled with a stretch of gorgeous vintage buildings that are overflowing with some of the best eat spots in town. Long waits are a myth here, whether rushing to the lake on a midsummer day, or getting to work via the expressway on a busy weekday. The home is beautiful without question, and life is uncomplicated in kind. Be sure to schedule your visit sooner than later, as the home goes on the open market soon!
