1337 S Fairfield Avenue, Chicago IL 60608
Property Description
Turnkey legal brick 3-flat in the heart of Douglass Park, surrounded by a wave of new construction and neighborhood redevelopment. This well-maintained, income-producing property features three units with in-unit laundry, central A/C, gas forced heating, hardwood flooring, and soaring 9-foot ceilings. The garden unit offers durable ceramic tile flooring. Recent capital improvements include a new roof (2023), a brand new air conditioning unit for the garden unit, a newly poured concrete parking pad with secure gated parking for three vehicles, refinished rear decks for the top two units, and a fully enclosed backyard with tons of green space. With two of the three units vacant, this is an exceptional opportunity for an owner-occupant, house hacker, or investor. Move right in, update at your own pace, and lease the remaining units at market rents from day one. Ideally located just one block from Douglass Park and within walking distance of the CTA Pink Line, the property offers easy access to the West Loop, Illinois Medical District, Cinespace Studios, and the United Center's transformative $7 billion 1901 Project. The nearby Endeavor Health Performance Center, home to Chicago Fire FC, further underscores the area's continued investment and long-term growth potential. Seller is a licensed real estate agent in the State of Illinois.

Explore Douglas Park
A concentration of residential blocks surrounding one of Chicago's largest parks, Douglas Park is a west side neighborhood tucked within the larger community of Lawndale. Named for the central focus of the area, this little region has its priorities straight: acres of parkland and open green expanses. More than just a slab of grass, Douglas Park's namesake park is home to a Cultural and Community Center that boasts all the intramural, recreational fun you can handle. The outdoor pool, volleyball and tennis courts, miniature golf course, sandboxes, and spray pools are always hot in the summer. But the wintertime is no exception to the community center's popularity as the lake freezes over and makes for a picture perfect ice skating rink. Packed with families from the neighborhood and surrounding areas, the center's outside features make this the ultimate Chicago playground. Inside, the center is also bustling with Douglas Park residents fond of arts and crafts, dance classes and music lessons.
