About This Home

As of December 2021

A fantastic four-bedroom, one and a half bath home, on one of the most desirable blocks in the area (Cullom & Parkside), is waiting for a new lease on life! This home has great, solid bones and is perfectly situated on a fantastic, fenced lot with so much usable yard space! The home offers a ton of natural light throughout, original hardwoods, a vintage kitchen, a rear pantry addition, and great layout potential on the second floor. The basement has it's own access, and it could easily be finished to add more usable square footage! Some of the homes in the area have vaulted the ceilings in the primary bedroom upstairs for a "wow factor" and/or they have dormered out the sides to add a great primary en suite bath. There is an existing 1/2 bath upstairs, but there is layout modification potential for a full bath. The wood paneling actually looks great painted due to it's great beveling/shape, or it can be left as-is due to being so well-preserved. There's so much potential waiting to be unlocked in this affordable single-family home, in a truly superb location, just one block in from gorgeous Portage Park. It's also across the street (diagonally) from newly-opened Rickover Naval Academy, and just a stone's throw to Portage Park Elementary. This home offers exceptionally easy access to all the surrounding suburbs within 10-15 minutes (Norridge, Elmwood Park, Edgebrook, Skokie) and neighborhood amenities galore! There are several nearby grocery stores, coffee shops, restaurants, pharmacies, and it's close to the Harlem and Irving Park shopping center. It's also super easy access to the forest preserves, hiking, and biking trails! For CTA riders, the Central and Montrose busses stop within a block of the property. Street parking is always available for guests, as well. With some modernization, this home would be even more valuable. Equity awaits! Just look at some of the recently sold homes on the block and you'll quickly see how great of an updated home/investment this can be! The block shows pride of ownership and is very welcoming. Don't miss your chance to secure this can't-miss property!
