About This Home

As of September 2025

** McKinley Park Workers Cottage ** This 2-bed, 1-bath classic Chicago worker's cottage sits on a full-size lot zoned RS-3, perfect for a creative rehab, smart addition, or full redevelopment. Solid structure, full basement, and alley access offer a range of value-add options. Inside, you've got a functional layout with separate living and dining areas, a large kitchen, and untapped basement potential. Located in a rapidly growing neighborhood just minutes from I-55, the Orange Line, and McKinley Park itself. Let's not forget Riverside Square where you can shop for groceries at Mariano's, get your dry cleaning done at Archer Cleaners, and get your glasses updated at Miami Optical. This is the kind of location that's quiet now, hot later. Whether you're a first-time flipper, experienced builder, or just tired of overpaying for "done" properties with no upside... this is Your Smartest Move. Sold as-is. Bring your vision-and don't wait.
