About this home
Exceptionally well-maintained all-brick duplex-down in the heart of Wicker Park, offering thoughtful upgrades, timeless finishes, and major recent investments that significantly reduce future ownership costs. Built in 2006 and set within a well-run boutique building, this expansive 3-bedroom, 3-bath home lives like a private residence, offering multiple living spaces, ATTACHED garage parking, and abundant storage. The main level features rich hardwood floors, elegant coffered ceilings, and a beautiful living room anchored by a Juliet balcony and fireplace.
