About This Home

Charming 3-bedroom, 1-bath second-floor unit in an intimate three unit building on a picturesque tree-lined street just blocks from Wrigley Field. Filled with original character and charm, this home features high ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, and abundant natural light.

The updated kitchen offers granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, island with a breakfast bar & a large walk in pantry. All three bedrooms share an updated hall bath with subway tile and a glass-enclosed tub/shower combination. Additional highlights include in-unit laundry with new washer & dryer (2025), basement storage, and a new private deck (2026) off the kitchen. Recent improvements include a new furnace (2025), AC condenser (2023), & newer roof. No parking included with the unit but there is plenty of street parking & rental options nearby. Live in the middle of it all in a prime Wrigleyville location minutes to all the restaurants, nightlife, and shopping along Clark and Halsted. Easy access to Lake Shore Drive, Belmont Harbor, the Addison Red Line, and multiple bus routes. This is the perfect place to start your next chapter.
