Maintained large exterior brick 3 flat in Washington Park Area, on a uniform block with original interior with lots of potential waiting for the right investor looking for value and appreciation. Each unit has large living rooms, dining rooms, large bedrooms with original hardwood floors throughout. 2nd and 3rd floors have seen minor renovations while leaving much of the original architectural features, dark wood crown molding in their pristine state. The basement is unfinished with high ceiling and can be built into another unit with new plan. Rents are way below markets and can be increased with updates to the kitchen, bathrooms and some good painting. Located a few blocks from Garfield Blvd and green line, University of Chicago Arts Incubator, Washington Park field, etc. Many new construction multi units in the area have sold at higher price points. Motivated seller!
