01About this home

Gut-rehabbed down to the studs in 2005, and tastefully updated since then. This 2-flat in the thriving neighborhood of Portage Park boasts 200 amp electric service, central AC, copper plumbing throughout, and updated kitchens and baths in both units. Tenants pay their own electric and gas. 1st floor unit currently rented on a MTM lease. Unit 2 lives like a single family home with 4 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a huge front deck, private entrance, and 2 floors of living space. Entire exterior was painted in 2022 and roof and gutters were replaced around that time. Mix of new laminate flooring and hardwood floors throughout. Fenced in backyard and 2 car garage. Walking distance to William Gray Elementary School, dining, and shopping. With easy access to I90, CTA, Metra, O'hare, and downtown Chicago this location truly has it all. Realtor owned.
