About This Home

As of February 2023

Adorable, cozy & charming! This stone, castle-like tudor home in Belmont Central / Galewood sits at the back of the property, away from the street. The house is sturdy and quiet inside. It has a private stone-lined courtyard in the back, perfect for relaxing. Lots of potential & charm in this unique home to make it your very own, so it is great for either investors or owner occupants. The garage off the alley has been bricked-in and turned into a non-heated storage room. This home has off-street parking at a newer front concrete driveway for a potential new garage build. The high-efficiency furnace and water heater are less than 10 years old. This home is near the Brickyard Mall, Riis Park (has a pool), the Metra Galewood train line that takes you right downtown. Sold As-Is.
