    Original fireplacesPrivate foyersTwo-car garageAmple in-unit closet spaceStately yellow-brick multifamily property
    Presenting a premier Woodlawn investment opportunity at 6148 South Rhodes Avenue-a stately yellow-brick multifamily property offering seven bedrooms and three baths across two full units plus a garden/in-law suite dwelling. This historically significant building retains its original character and timeless architectural, highlighted by a classic wainscot building entrance, original fireplaces, beam ceilings in select units, and protected hardwood floors beneath existing carpeting. Several units feature private foyers, separate formal living and dining rooms, and ample in-unit closet space, reflecting the generous layouts and craftsmanship of its era. Each unit is equipped with an individual boiler, delivering efficient and dependable radiator heat-an ideal benefit for both owner-occupants and tenants. Notable capital improvements include a roof redone and silver-coated approximately three years ago, boilers less than one year old, and a 50-gallon water tank installed in 2020. The property is fully enclosed with wrought-iron security fencing surrounding the entire building, along with security gates at all entry and exit doors, providing peace of mind and added value. Additional amenities include a coin-operated laundry in the basement, individual storage units, a maintenance-free exterior patio designed as a gathering space for outdoor entertainment, and a two-car garage. This exceptional property offers a powerful generational-wealth family hold or a strategic investor opportunity, blending historic charm, enhanced security, modern infrastructure, and long-term potential in the heart of Woodlawn.
