$665,000 Contingent
Property Description
Rarely does an opportunity like this come along at this price point. Priced at $665,000, this 3-unit sits just steps from the future Obama Presidential Center and near the rapidly transforming 63rd Street corridor. The $800M Woodlawn Central development, an 8-acre mixed-use project, is expected to bring a hotel, theater, technology center, retail, restaurants, residential towers, and a vertical farm to the neighborhood. Each unit features a generously sized primary bedroom with en-suite bath, a private balcony, and a cozy fireplace in the living room. With two units vacant, you have immediate flexibility to set market rents or design your ideal living setup. This property offers a clear value-add opportunity for buyers looking to build equity in a rapidly appreciating market. Live in one unit while generating rental income from the others, or hold as a long-term investment in one of Chicago's most closely watched growth corridors. Each unit has its own PIN, offering a potential path to future condo conversion. Gated rear parking for three vehicles and tenant-paid utilities add to the appeal. Conveniently located near Mt. Carmel High School and the Metra line. Sold as-is.
