Property Description
Our team is proud to present a unique legal four-unit property located on the border of Logan Square and Avondale, just one street away from the vibrant activity on Milwaukee Avenue. The property features one of the most stunning coach houses in Chicago, designed by Burn and Beyer Architects. This bright and sunny three-story coach house offers an open-concept floor plan with three bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths, functioning like a private single-family home at the rear of the property, surrounded by an impeccably curated yard. The third floor has plumbing what is currently used as a closet allowing a new owner to easily add an additional bathroom, creating a primary en-suite. Recent updates within the last five years include a new coffee/tea nook, laundry room cabinetry, new countertops, a half-bathroom renovation, custom blinds, and new deck flooring, among others. The full renovation of the coach house was done to the highest standards including installing the sump pump, NFPA 13D fire sprinkler system and tankless water heaters. The front building comprises three legal units and an unfinished basement, ideal for adding in-unit washers and dryers. The top-floor unit is currently vacant, presenting a significant value-add opportunity for new ownership to renovate and customize. The other two front units are more updated, having undergone renovations by prior owners. This property is ideal for a savvy owner-occupier looking to experience the best of Logan Square and Avondale without being directly on a busy street.
