About this home
Rarely available and meticulously maintained by the same owners for over 25 years, this all-brick 2-flat with a finished in-law suite/garden unit in a highly sought-after Portage Park location offers an incredible turnkey opportunity for smart investors or live-in buyers. Boasting exceptional curb appeal on a generous 30 X 125 lot, this property radiates pride of ownership and lucrative investment potential. The first-floor unit (leased through 12/31/26) features a classic Chicago layout with a large living room, a separate formal dining room with gleaming hardwood floors, and a spacious eat-in kitchen equipped with stainless steel appliances, a gas stove, a dishwasher, and a large walk-in pantry. It also includes two bedrooms (with hardwood under the carpet), a dedicated office space, and a full bathroom. The top-floor unit (leased through 06/30/27) underwent a complete gut rehab in 2001 and is filled with abundance of natural light. It features beautiful hardwood floors throughout the extra-large living room, a separate formal dining room, and a modern, updated kitchen with custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a pantry. It also includes two bedrooms, a versatile bonus room perfect for a nursery, office or den, and an updated bathroom. The lower level includes a finished in-law suite/garden unit featuring hardwood floors, a spacious living room, and a large eat-in kitchen - perfect for additional rental income - currently vacant. The shared basement area offers separate mechanical infrastructure with three individual electric panels, a 7-to-8-year-old hot water heater, radiator heating, and a common laundry area complete with two washers, two dryers, and a utility sink. Additional features include a beautifully manicured backyard ideal for summer entertaining, a detached two-car garage, and new windows (2000) with a lifetime warranty. Perfectly situated in a prime, highly sought-after location, this property offers unbeatable transit access, minutes to the Jefferson Park CTA Depot, Metra stop, and I-90/94 for effortless commutes to both O'Hare and downtown. Enjoy being steps away from iconic Portage Park, boasting its Olympic-sized pool, tennis courts, playgrounds, a dog park, and bike paths, alongside fantastic local restaurants and shopping. While currently generating reliable income, current rents are well below market value, presenting a massive value-add opportunity to capture the significantly higher rental rates this booming area commands. This three-unit property offers incredible flexibility for owner-occupants and investors alike. Buyer to verify local zoning ordinances and building compliance. Don't miss your chance to own a well-maintained income-producing gem in Portage Park!...
