About This Home

As of September 2024

**MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED. HIGHEST AND BEST TERMS DUE MONDAY, AUGUST 19 AT 11:00 AM** Wonderfully distinctive Victorian style, Chicago two-flat with excellent curb appeal. Nestled on lovely block within Portage Park and a highly walkable location: close to the expressway, trains, shopping, dining and more! This property has been lovingly cared for by the same owner since 1975. Recent updates include first floor Kitchen and Bath; and second floor Bath. But there's so much more - take a look at the update sheet found under additional documents. The preservation of the original wood work, hutches and built in mirrors is stunning! Spacious and bright living spaces throughout. Perfect for an owner occupant to house hack, or an investor to buy and hold. Top floor has 3 bedroom plus a adjacent room off the Kitchen. First floor has 2 bedrooms and the heated adjacent room - as well as some fun features like exposed brick in the kitchen and original swing door between kitchen and dining room. Basement is unfinished and ready for your improvements which could include turning into a garden unit once the ADU ordinance is passed. Delightful front porch and deck off the back make for lovely outdoor spaces. Two car garage. This is a great opportunity to own a beautiful two flat in a prime location!
