About this home
Set in the heart of Woodlawn, this classic Chicago three-flat blends solid construction with modern upgrades and an unbeatable location. The building features two generously sized three-bedroom, one-bath units on the first and second floors, along with a two-bedroom, one-bath garden unit. The first-floor unit is currently vacant, offering immediate options for an owner-occupant or value-add investor, while the garden and second-floor units are occupied. All units showcase updated kitchens with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and the convenience of in-unit laundry. Central air and heat throughout the building add comfort and efficiency, making these residences attractive, functional, and easy to maintain. Woodlawn continues to see meaningful momentum, and this property sits just blocks from major neighborhood anchors including The University of Chicago, Jewel grocery store, and the green expanses of Jackson Park, soon to be home to the Obama Presidential Center. Commuters will appreciate quick access to Lake Shore Drive, as well as nearby CTA Green Line and Metra stations connecting to downtown and beyond. Whether you're looking to live in one unit while generating income or add a strong asset to your portfolio, this property offers a compelling combination of location, updates, and long-term upside in one of Chicago's most closely watched neighborhoods.
