About this home
Welcome to this beautiful, legal 2-unit building with a full finished basement in the heart of Belmont Cragin. This is the rare find that works every way you run the numbers: a turnkey owner-occupant opportunity where you can live in one unit while the second helps carry the mortgage, or a hands-free addition to a rental portfolio with every big-ticket item already done for you. Across three finished levels you'll find 5 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms and room to spare at every turn. The spacious first level opens with a generous living room and gleaming hardwood floors, flowing into a uniquely designed kitchen that is truly the centerpiece of the home - custom-made cabinetry, brand-new appliances, and the kind of finish level you simply don't see in multi-unit buildings. The cozy second floor offers its own comfortable, private living space, and the full finished basement adds 2 more bedrooms and a full bath - perfect for extended family, guests, or even more rental flexibility. Classic architectural character throughout, paired with every modern amenity today's tenants and buyers demand. Buy with total confidence: the heavy lifting is finished. New roof, new siding, new gutters, and new mechanicals - the expensive, unglamorous essentials are already handled, so you can focus on collecting rent or simply enjoying the home. The location does the rest of the selling. Belmont Cragin puts you minutes from expressway access for an easy downtown commute and close to the Blue Line for car-free trips into the city - a combination that keeps quality tenants in place and vacancies short. Opportunities like this - legal 2-unit, fully renovated systems-to-finishes, three levels of finished living space - do not sit. Schedule your showing today before someone else runs the numbers and beats you to it....
