Property Description
Rare Opportunity in Lincoln Square - Stately Turn-of-the-Century 2-Flat! On the market for the first time in over 55 years, this grand and expansive 2-flat is a true gem, lovingly maintained by the same family for two generations. Located on a picturesque, tree-lined stretch of Winnemac Avenue, this exceptional property offers 60 feet of frontage and sits on an oversized lot with lush, mature growth landscaping. One apartment features 3 generously sized bedrooms-and the other 2 large bedrooms plus a den with a sunny, south-facing terrace. Each boasts grand formal living and dining rooms, and true eat-in kitchens-perfect for entertaining or everyday living. Recent updates include HVAC and upgraded windows. Unparallelled convenience abounds with an elevator providing access from the exterior ground level-and servicing the basement up to the second level. Whether you're an investor seeking strong rental income; an owner-occupant looking to create a stunning duplex-up with the unfinished stand-up attic while realizing significant rental income from the unit below; or someone dreaming of converting this classic beauty into a magnificent single-family residence, the possibilities here are endless! All of this in thriving Lincoln Square. Situated just 4 blocks from the charming neighborhood shops and eateries on Lincoln Ave and just 3-1/2 blocks from the Brown Line. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Lincoln Square history-this is a once-in-a-generation offering! Oversized lot next door (2524 W. Winnemac) also offered together or separately.
