Property Description
Rarely available townhome in Jefferson Park featuring hardwood floors, modern finishes, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances (dishwasher + microwave). Large bedrooms, in-unit washer/dryer. Check the layout as the basement has space that can be converted into a bedroom turning it into a 3 bedroom oasis. Choosing this type of an attached home means you have increased privacy as you have fewer shared walls. Pets are allowed - cats, dogs, and fish tanks are welcome. There is no security deposit but a move in deposit is required. Resident pays cooking gas, heat, and electricity. Closest bus stop is 3 mins away (Foster and Central Park). This area is served by CTA bus lines 81, 82, and 92. Parking space is available.
