Rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive Humboldt Park property with the curb appeal of a castle and the timeless character of a classic Greystone. Constructed with Indiana Limestone, this meticulously maintained legal three-unit building showcases the durable construction and architectural character for which Chicago's Greystones are renowned. Each of the three upper-level apartments is approximately 1,200 square feet and features a private balcony, nearly 10-foot ceilings, natural hardwood floors, three bedrooms with closets, and two generously sized bedrooms in each unit, with additional finished living space on the garden level offering excellent flexibility for an owner occupant or investor. Vintage character abounds, including original doors, trim, hardware, ornate built-in hutches on the first and third floors, and original cast-iron clawfoot tubs in each apartment. Kitchens feature exterior ventilation, with commercial-grade kitchen vents installed in 2024. Recent improvements include granite countertops and bathroom vanities throughout, a new stainless-steel refrigerator in each unit, and a recently refreshed top-floor apartment featuring a completely renovated bathroom and new electrical outlets. Significant mechanical and infrastructure updates provide peace of mind, including a recently rebuilt boiler, newer water heaters, coin-operated laundry, new copper water service installed in 2023 in conjunction with the City's sewer main work, and copper plumbing throughout the building completed since then. The finished garden level offers additional usable living space with approximately 7-foot ceilings. A large, beautifully landscaped backyard with mature trees creates a private urban oasis rarely found in the neighborhood. Two-car garage plus easy zoned street parking. Just 200 yards from Humboldt Park, enjoy convenient access to the park's lagoons, tennis courts, beach, gym, playground, and extensive walking, running and biking paths. Bike to the 606/Bloomingdale Trail in approximately four minutes, stroll to Division Street restaurants and neighborhood amenities, or bike downtown in approximately 25 minutes. A special property combining Greystone architecture, Indiana Limestone construction, generous living space, substantial updates, outdoor amenities, and an exceptional Humboldt Park location.
