    What's special

    Finished basementWell-maintained brick two-flatCrown moldingEnclosed back foyerUpdated kitchen cabinetsSeparate exterior entrancesHardwood floors
    Well-maintained brick two-flat featuring two spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bath units with hardwood floors, crown molding, ceiling fans, updated kitchen cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and a newer boiler (2023). The finished basement offers two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, a summer kitchen, and separate exterior entrances, providing excellent flexibility for extended family or additional living space. Each unit includes an enclosed back foyer, providing additional living or storage space. Perfect for an investor seeking strong rental potential or an owner-occupant looking to live in one unit while generating income from the other. The owner occupies the first-floor unit, while the second-floor unit is rented to a month-to-month tenant who would like to stay. Situated on an oversized 30' x 125' lot and conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, parks, schools, CTA, Metra, I-90/94, O'Hare, and Downtown Chicago. A solid investment with flexibility and long-term value. Some interior photos were taken prior to the current tenant's occupancy.
