01About this home

Located in the highly sought-after Woodlawn community, this stunning brick single-family home presents a rare opportunity for buyers and investors ready to add their finishing touches and unlock major equity. Much of the heavy lifting has already been completed, cosmetic updates remain, but the upside is HUGE. Step inside to a spacious open-concept main level featuring soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, recessed lighting, gleaming hardwood floors and a cozy fireplace perfect for entertaining or everyday living. The kitchen anchors the space with a large island and generous cabinet storage, ideal for gatherings and functionality. The second level hosts three bedrooms, including a generously sized primary suite with a decorative fireplace and a spa-like bath complete with a walk-in shower. The finished basement extends the living space even further, offering an additional bedroom, full bathroom, laundry room, and exterior access. Perfect for guests or extended living. A fully gated yard for added privacy, and a 2-car garage. The location is unbeatable, just minutes from the University of Chicago, Obama Presidential Library, Jackson Park, Museum of Science and Industry, Lake Michigan, Hyde Park shopping, Metra, and Lake Shore Drive. Sold as-is, this home is ideal for buyers who recognize value and vision. Renovated homes in this area command strong prices, making this an opportunity you don't want to miss. Homes like this in Woodlawn do not last long!! The property will require a cash buyer, renovation loan, or other non-conventional financing. It offers a compelling opportunity for a visionary buyer or builder looking to restore a beautiful home.
