About This Home

Rare Single-Family Home in the Heart of Wicker Park with Private Parking & Designer Outdoor Living A truly rare opportunity to own a 2,912 square foot SINGLE FAMILY STANDALONE home in one of Chicago's most vibrant neighborhoods. Located on Damen Avenue just one block north of Division Street, this exceptional property offers the space, privacy, and lifestyle that are incredibly difficult to find in Wicker Park. The home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, along with a recently remodeled interior showcasing brand new hardwood flooring throughout. Offered fully furnished and fully stocked, this property is completely turnkey-perfect as a primary residence, second home, or investment opportunity. One of the standout features is the rare private parking area accommodating 2-3 vehicles, a true luxury in this location. Even more impressive is the professionally designed fenced backyard, creating a private outdoor retreat rarely found in the city. The space has been thoughtfully upgraded with a premium turf lawn, professional landscaping, and multiple entertainment zones, including a seating area with fire pit, dining table and chairs, sun loungers, and a fully equipped outdoor kitchen featuring a natural gas grill, granite countertops, and custom-built wood grill enclosure. Situated in the heart of Wicker Park, the home is just steps from the energy of Division Street and is walkable to countless restaurants, boutiques, coffee shops, parks, and nightlife in Wicker Park, Bucktown, and Logan Square. Commuting is effortless with quick access to the Blue Line train and multiple public transportation options. Opportunities to own a move-in ready single-family home with private parking and a fully built-out backyard oasis in this location are exceptionally limited. This is city living at its finest-combining space, convenience, and lifestyle in one remarkable property.
