Property Description

Contemporary urban farmhouse-style home on a rare oversized Chicago lot, offering the space and feel of a single-family home with the flexibility of a legal 2-unit configuration. Fully reimagined through a major gut rehab, the property features an expansive three-level owner's residence with an open main living area, modern chef kitchen, decor fireplace, hardwood floors, mudroom, generous bedrooms, and a standout primary suite with a true dream walk-in closet rarely found in a Chicago home. The finished garden unit adds a complete second living space with its own kitchen, laundry, separate entrances, and updated finishes-ideal for extended family, guests, rental income potential, or a private work-from-home setup. Major updates include separate HVAC systems, two hot water heaters, updated appliances, and a fully owned 9 kW solar system producing approximately 10k+ kWh annually, historically helping keep electric costs exceptionally low. Set on a 37.5-foot-wide lot with a grandfathered 3-car detached garage and EV charger, the property delivers a level of space, flexibility, and utility that is hard to replicate. Ideally located near the Avondale and Logan Square corridor, with easy access to Koz Park, Avondale Bowl, Sugarmoon that's worth the wait in line, Milwaukee Ave dining, and the Logan Square Farmers Market. A rare opportunity to own a flexible, energy-efficient, fully renovated home in one of Chicago's most dynamic neighborhood pockets.
