About This Home
As of March 2026This move-in-ready two-flat is perfect for owner-occupancy or for adding to your investment portfolio! Each unit rents for $2,600 per month. Combining vintage charm with modern updates in a great location, you're just minutes from downtown Forest Park and Oak Park, with easy access to the Green Line, Metra, shopping, and great restaurants. Both units have been updated for today's lifestyle. They offer central air, new mechanicals, in-unit full-size laundry, and kitchens with stainless steel appliances, lots of cabinets, stone countertops, and a very spacious layout. The second-floor unit has 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. This vintage-style unit was fully renovated in 2015 with new electrical, plumbing, and gas lines. It features high ceilings, natural wood trim, and heated floors in the kitchen, laundry room, and one bathroom. The first-floor unit has 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and a sunroom/office. Renovated in 2019, it features a primary suite and a large kitchen with newer cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and granite countertops. Out back, both units share a fenced yard with a patio, fire pit, and garden space, perfect for relaxing or gardening on the weekend. A breezeway connects the main entrance to the side entry of unit two, providing extra convenience and storage. Parking is a big plus, with 5 to 6 spaces available in the back, which is especially helpful since Forest Park has overnight street parking restrictions. The basement also offers plenty of storage as well. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own an updated, income-producing two-flat with exceptional parking, outdoor space, and an unbeatable near-everything Forest Park location! Both units are currently rented, so they look different now, but they are still in good condition.
