About This Home

As of January 2018

Welcome to an excellent pocket of Portage Park, and welcome home to a charming 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom bungalow. Walk into a large living room/dining room area with hardwood floors throughout the first floor. Then head into a large kitchen with an eat-in/breakfast area that flows into a rear, enclosed porch, which is perfect as an office, play room or a bonus room. Both bedrooms on the first floor are spacious with ample closet space! Enjoy a large second floor space featuring two (2) additional bedrooms with newer carpet. The basement is unfinished. Close to schools, Jewel, Jefferson Park, the Blue Line, easy highway access and much more! Please notice the ridiculously low property taxes; they have been appealed and successfully lowered. Starbucks applied for permits to open a drive-thru at 5601 West Lawrence, too! Go FHA with a 3.50% down payment at a rate of approximately 4% for a payment of less than $1,900 per month, which is cheaper than renting! Show and sell. A 10. A must see.
