Property Description
This is a rare opportunity to own a legal 3-unit building in the heart of Roscoe Village. Featuring a stately facade and impressive curb appeal, the property sits on a beautiful, tree-lined block in one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods-offering the perfect blend of stability and upside for investors or owner-occupants alike. Each unit offers a well-designed layout with in-unit washer and dryer, individual heating and cooling expenses, separate hot water tanks, and private outdoor space-highly desirable features that attract and retain quality tenants. The building is consistently easy to rent, with thoughtfully structured leases that include detailed riders and built-in rent increases. As leases turn over, there is additional opportunity to further enhance income, as they are currently rented below market value. Rents listed are estimated market values. Current rents are $2695 for unit 1, $2375 for unit 2 including parking, and $2790 for unit 3, plus $165/month for the additional parking spot. The property also includes a backyard and a 2-car garage. For those seeking an owner-occupied option, the unique two-level top-floor unit presents an exceptional opportunity to live comfortably while generating income below.
