Property Description

PRICE CHANGED - THE OPPORTUNITY JUST GOT HARDER TO IGNORE! Restore the Grandeur. Reclaim the Elegance. Revive a Piece of Chicago History - now at a newly adjusted price. If this one has been on your radar, it may be time to take another look. The price has changed, but the character, space, and restoration potential that make this property stand apart are still very much here. This classic American Foursquare offers 6 true bedrooms and 1.5 baths, generous room sizes, a traditional floor plan, and the architectural presence that has made this style an enduring favorite. Behind its current condition is the framework of a home that once showcased the craftsmanship and ornate details of another era-and is waiting for the right vision to bring it forward again. Yes repairs and updates are needed. But that's exactly where the opportunity begins. For the buyer who appreciates historic architecture and isn't afraid to roll up their sleeves, this is a chance to restore rather than replace, reimagine rather than settle, and create something that simply can't be duplicated in newer construction. And don't overlook the rear yard. Mature foliage and natural greenery create a surprisingly peaceful setting with room to garden, entertain, relax, or transform the space into your own outdoor retreat. Located in Chicago's West Pullman community, the property is convenient to neighborhood shopping, dining, transportation, West Pullman Park, Metra service, and major transportation corridors. The historic Pullman neighborhood and Pullman National Historical Park are also nearby, adding another connection to the rich architectural and cultural history of Chicago's Far South Side. THE CHARACTER DIDN'T CHANGE. THE POTENTIAL DIDN'T CHANGE. THE PRICE DID. If you considered it before, take another look and run the numbers again. If you've been waiting for the right opportunity to take on a restoration with size, character, and presence, this may be your signal. Bring your vision. Bring your contractor. Bring your appreciation for craftsmanship. The next chapter of 11808 S Emerald is waiting-but at this new price, don't assume it will wait forever.

Explore West Pullman

On the far south side of Chicago, this older neighborhood, once home to scores of area factory workers, now houses scores of families that enjoy its rich history and affordable real estate. For an area that got its start as a residence for industrial labor (and a place with its fair share of factories), West Pullman has an unexpectedly high incidence of parkland, playlots and other outdoor recreation sites. The neighborhood's residential blocks range from verdant, tree-lined yards that require the care of a good push mower and gardener to more urban areas with tightly-packed dwellings stretching as far as the eye can see. Among the different housing styles found along the West Pullman streets there is one property that gets quite a bit more attention than any other home. It is a beautiful example of famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright's signature design, incorporating geometric forms, the surrounding landscape, in addition and elements of Japanese patterns.
