This property is zoned X, flood insurance is NOT required. Albany park historically has flooded. The city of Chicago did not want to put Albany Park residents in future fear this would happen again so they did a multi million dollar Diversion Tunnel project post 2013 flood. Since, water levels have gone down drastically. Due to sewer backups in the neighborhood, the owners had a dual valve sewer backup system installed with effluent pump to allow use of commodes during backup events. The owners purchased this system at a cost of $15,000 & was installed by Expert flood control. Transferable warranty to future owners. This property is one of a kind and sits higher on the land than neighboring homes. Please see attached documents for more detailed information about the project. Entire interior was painted approximately 2 years ago, minutes away from 90/94, the train, shops and restaurants! This is a MUST see! MOTIVATED SELLER! This property is being sold AS IS condition.
