Directly across from Grand Crossing Park, the location is unbeatable. Just walk out your front door to enjoy green open space, jogging paths, basketball and volleyball courts, a swimming pool, playgrounds, and community events, all without ever starting your car. Whether you're raising a family, looking for reliable rental income, or house-hacking with a live-in investment, this property offers lifestyle and location in one attractive package. The main level features a classic layout with three well-sized bedrooms, a full bath, and a sunlit living room with plenty of character.

This lower level provides great ceiling height, abundant natural light, and direct outdoor access, making it a highly usable extension of the living space. Step outside to your huge rear deck, perfect for grilling, relaxing, or entertaining friends and family in the warmer months. The fenced backyard also offers private off-street parking for two vehicles, a highly valued feature in the city. Investors will appreciate the strong rental potential in this area, with proximity to parks, public transit, schools, and access to I-90/94, making commuting downtown or to the surrounding suburbs convenient. Nearby amenities include Chicago State University, Jackson Park Hospital, Avalon Park, and a growing collection of local shops, cafes, and redevelopment activity, making this one of the South Side's most promising areas.
