500 W 42nd Street

Welcome to 500 W 42nd St, a classic Chicago bungalow that blends timeless character with everyday comfort in the heart of Canaryville-just minutes from downtown. From the moment you arrive at this charming corner-lot home, you're greeted by an inviting presence: mature city streets, a fenced yard that wraps the property, and the feeling of privacy and space that's rare this close to the Loop. Inside discover warm hardwood floors that flow through the main level, creating a sense of continuity and comfort. The living and dining areas are bathed in natural light from multiple exposures, giving the home a bright, airy feel throughout the day. The first floor offers two well-sized bedrooms, each with that cozy, restful quality you want at the end of the day, and a full bath conveniently located nearby. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms-versatile spaces that can serve as sleeping quarters, guest rooms, hobby spaces, or a quiet retreat separate from the main level. The layout gives everyone room to spread out without losing the intimate feel of a true bungalow. The partially finished basement expands your living space even further. An office provides a quiet, dedicated spot for working from home or managing day-to-day life, while the family room invites movie nights, game days, or a comfortable play area. This level offers a second bath for added convenience, making it easy to host guests or create a separate hangout zone. Many updates including a new roof and windows in 2020, new back porch 2021 and new central air in 2016. Outside, the fenced yard feels like your own private pocket of the city-perfect for grilling, gardening, or simply unwinding in the fresh air. Being on a corner lot adds to the sense of openness, with more light and breathing room than you typically find in the city. An exterior parking space adds everyday practicality, eliminating the stress of circling for street parking. Set in Chicago's historic Canaryville neighborhood, this home puts you close to everything: - Quick access to downtown Chicago for work, dining, and nightlife - Just a few short blocks to public transportation, making your commute simple and car-optional - A nearby park where you can enjoy green space, playgrounds, and a casual atmosphere. 500 W 42nd St offers the comfort of bungalow living, the flexibility of four true bedrooms plus a partially finished basement, and the convenience of a location that keeps you connected to the best of the city. This is a home where you can settle in, spread out and enjoy the feel of a classic Chicago neighborhood-just moments from it all. Being offered as-is.
