About this home
Step into history with this remarkable investment opportunity-a legal 3-flat nestled in the Historic District of Chicago Heights. Built in 1895 by George C. Flanner, a prominent lumber baron and one of the village's first mayors, this stunning Queen Anne Victorian is rich with character and a story that truly sets it apart. From the moment you arrive, the home's timeless charm is evident, beginning with the inviting covered front porch-an ideal spot to relax and take in the beauty of this expansive .35-acre corner lot. Inside, you'll find exquisite original woodwork that showcases the craftsmanship of a bygone era, offering warmth, elegance, and architectural detail rarely found today. This legal 3-flat offers strong investment potential, and the current owner has already taken care of several major updates, including replacing lead pipes with copper, reworking the boiler, and installing a new water heater in 2025-providing peace of mind for years to come. Bring your vision and ideas for cosmetic updates to elevate this historic gem into a true showstopper. Whether you're an investor looking to expand your portfolio or a buyer seeking a one-of-a-kind property with both charm and income potential, this property delivers on every level.
