Description

A stately Chicago beauty with incredible curb appeal and potential is on the market for the first time in over 40 years. This lovingly maintained, fully leased, legal 4-unit building is not to be missed. Situated on one of Lake View's most coveted blocks, this building offers an amazing opportunity for renovation (lot 25'x133' and zoned RM-5) or to assume a robust investment property. Apartments 1, 2 and 3 all have oak hardwood flooring in the main living areas & carpeting in the bedrooms, wood burning fireplaces in the living rooms & rear decks. All 4 apartments have gas water heaters, central air and gas forced heat; tenants pay gas, electric & internet. The top floor of the building, Apt. #3, has 2 bedrooms / 1.5 baths. Apt. #2 has 2 bedrooms / 1.5 baths. The first-floor unit, Apt. #1, has 2 bedrooms / 1.5 baths and is month to month (needs 120 days' notice to vacate). The garden unit was renovated in the past few years, has 2 bedrooms and 1 bath, and will be available for occupancy this summer. All apartments have access to coin laundry in the basement & individual storage closets. A substantial rear yard offers private outdoor space for the building with no alley behind it. Located on charming Buckingham Place, a one-way street in Lake View, this building is in the heart of it all with easy access to public transit, the restaurants & bars of both Wrigleyville and North Halsted, a short distance to Belmont Harbor & Lake Michigan. Please note, this property is being conveyed AS-IS due to age and condition of roof. No alley behind this block = no parking.
