    Overview

    Nicely restored historic building with 2 apartments. Excellent downtown location across the street from Washington Square Park, the new Art Museum, the Post Office, several blocks from the new Medical Center, the Five Flags Theatre and easy access to all the Universities. One apartment on the main floor and one on the second floor each with 2 bedrooms and one full bath. The 2nd floor apartment has a large attic on the 3rd floor that could be finished as a 3rd bedroom. Both apartments are fully furnished and presently used for short and long term rental thru Air BnB. Mixed use Zoning provides many possibilities. Continue using as Air BnB or live in one and rent the other or live upstairs and use the main floor as an office or use the whole house as a single family dwelling. The back yard is very private and fully fenced. The City allows one street parking permit for each apartment. Owner is a licensed Real Estate Broker in Illinois and will cooperate with Iowa Brokers.
