Almost vacant large exterior brick 3 flat in Washington Park Area, on a uniform block with original interior, lots of potential waiting for the developer or experienced investor, looking for value and appreciation. Each unit features large living room, dining room, large bedrooms with 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. Unfinished with high ceiling and can be built into another unit, with a new plan. Rents were way below markets. 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 sold at higher price points. Motivated seller!
