Property Description
Exceptional oversized 3-unit building on a rare extra-wide Chicago lot in a prime Edgewater location. Each expansive unit offers approximately 2,000 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, featuring gracious room sizes, abundant natural light, and highly functional layouts that feel more like single-family homes. The partially finished basement presents a massive value-add opportunity by duplexing down creating an incredible owner's unit or by potentially converting into a fourth unit (buyer to verify zoning and compliance). Outdoor living is unmatched with a massive rear deck plus a difficult-to-find 3-car garage. The current owner has done extensive updates that a new owner can now simply enjoy. This property offers exceptional scale, flexibility, and long-term upside-ideal for an owner-occupant seeking rental income or an investor looking for a trophy multi-unit in one of the city's most vibrant neighborhoods.
