The heated 2.5-car garage features tall ceilings, additional workspace and parking space outside the garage. Ideally located within walking distance of parks, schools, the Metra and CTA, with easy access to the rapidly developing Armitage Avenue corridor filled with shops, restaurants and neighborhood favorites.
