Property Description
Located in the heart of Avondale, this well-maintained 2-flat with a non-conforming garden unit offers an ideal blend of investment potential and owner-occupant appeal. Just steps from popular coffee shops, craft breweries, restaurants, and multiple grocery options, the location continues to attract strong tenant demand. The spacious first-floor unit features soaring 10-foot ceilings and an open layout, while the second-floor unit includes the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer. Each unit offers its own three-season room, and the property features a beautifully landscaped patio and detached two-car garage. Major improvements completed within the last three years include newer HVAC systems for all units, updated electrical, new front and rear exterior doors, refreshed kitchen flooring on the first floor, updated countertops on the second floor, and patio landscaping enhancements. A rare opportunity to own a versatile, income-producing property in one of Chicago's most sought-after neighborhoods.
