About This Home
As of August 2025HUGE PRICE REDUCTION!! Enjoy the charm of the past with updates of the present in this iconic vintage home in the heard of Homewood. Updated include: New tear-off roof (2 yrs); Water heater (1 yr); Furnace (3 yrs); Siding (5 yrs); New flooring in the kitchen. Kitchen has lots of cabinets as well as an island. There is also a breakfast area off the kitchen and an office area. Living/dining room is huge. Upstairs each large bedroom has its own en-suite bathrook. Full basement is ready for further expansion. Note: There are 2 full bathrooms on the upper level; there is a half bath on the main level and there is a half bath plus a separate shower in the basement. Large lot has a side drive with much available parking as well as a concrete patio at the rear of the house. Two-car garage was convertted to a workshop but wouldn't need much to turn it back into a garage. Property is being sold "as is" but is in very nice condition. The small lot between the subject property and 18518 (directly north) is, I understand, bank owned, but if the Village could get possession they might offer to sell to either 18526 or 18518 - note, this lot is not buildable. House is located in the highly sought-after community of Homewood and is in close proximity to excellent schools, parks and the downtown area with an array of shops, restaurants and cultural attractions as well as the Metra train to the city and University of Chicago. Don't miss the opportunity to own a piece of Homewood's history with this unique home. Call for your appointment today.
