    What's special

    Amazing investment opportunty to own an updated legal 2-flat with a finished English Garden Unit with HIGH ceilings in Jefferson Park. This property offers generous living space, strong rental income, and excellent flexibility for an investor, owner-occupant, or multi-generational household. Both Unit 1 and Unit 2 feature 3 bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms with thoughtfully redesigned floor plans that provide larger bedrooms than typically found in vintage Chicago buildings. Each unit offers bright living spaces, recessed lighting, updated kitchens with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, and ample cabinetry, plus one full bathroom and a convenient powder room. Unit 1 is currently leased at $2,650 per month, including electricity, gas/heat, water, trash removal, landscaping, and one garage parking space. Unit 2 is currently leased at $2,400 per month, including electricity and water. Together, the two legal units currently generate $5,050 in monthly rental revenue, or $60,600 annually. The finished basement is currently vacant but can provide additional flexible living space with 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom and an estimated rental potential of approximately $2,300 per month (MLS Comparable#: 12616160), subject to applicable laws, zoning, approvals, and permitted use. If legally approved for rental use, the property's potential combined gross income could reach approximately $7,250 per month or $87,000 annually. Additional features include an oversized deck above the garage, shared outdoor space, rear decks, and coin-operated washer and dryer, providing added convenience and potential supplemental income. Conveniently located near shopping, dining, transportation, parks, and neighborhood amenities, this is a versatile income-producing property with updated interiors, spacious layouts, and excellent long-term potential.
