    *** BE AWARE OF SCAM, THIS PROPERTY IS ABSOLUTELLY NOT FOR RENT *** Welcome to 7649 S Dobson Ave, a solid brick home bursting with potential and perfectly positioned in the heart of Chicago's Grand Crossing neighborhood. This 3-bedroom + 1 bedroom in the walk-out basement, 2-bathroom home offers the ideal layout for owner-occupants looking to add personal value over time-or investors seeking a high-demand rental in a thriving community with strong upside. Directly across from Grand Crossing Park, the location is unbeatable. Just walk out your front door to enjoy green open space, jogging paths, basketball and volleyball courts, a swimming pool, playgrounds, and community events, all without ever starting your car. Whether you're raising a family, looking for reliable rental income, or house-hacking with a live-in investment, this property offers lifestyle and location in one attractive package. The main level features a classic layout with three well-sized bedrooms, a full bath, and a sunlit living room with plenty of character. While the home still reflects a charming 1950s vintage style, it has been well maintained and is the perfect canvas for light updating or a full cosmetic renovation to unlock its full value. Downstairs, the fully finished walk-out basement includes a fourth bedroom, second full bathroom, and a flexible open space ideal for a family room, home office, gym, or even a potential in-law suite. This lower level provides great ceiling height, abundant natural light, and direct outdoor access, making it a highly usable extension of the living space. Step outside to your huge rear deck, perfect for grilling, relaxing, or entertaining friends and family in the warmer months. The fenced backyard also offers private off-street parking for two vehicles, a highly valued feature in the city. Investors will appreciate the strong rental potential in this area, with proximity to parks, public transit, schools, and access to I-90/94, making commuting downtown or to the surrounding suburbs convenient. Nearby amenities include Chicago State University, Jackson Park Hospital, Avalon Park, and a growing collection of local shops, cafes, and redevelopment activity, making this one of the South Side's most promising areas. Whether you're looking to buy, renovate, rent, or live-in and build equity over time, 7649 S Dobson Ave is a rock-solid investment with a location that simply can't be beat. Schedule your private showing today and take the first step toward owning this versatile and valuable property! Back on the market due to buyer financing issues-no fault of the property.
