Property Description

Exceptional investment or owner-occupant opportunity in a prime location! This solid brick two-flat features two spacious 3-bedroom, 1-bath units, both offering beautifully remodeled porcelain-tiled bathrooms (2025), fresh paint (2026), and hardwood flooring throughout. With both units vacant, this property is truly move-in ready and offers immediate income potential or flexible multi-generational living options. Ideally situated within walking distance to the Skokie Swift, Target, public transportation, and just steps from Lockwood Park, convenience is unmatched. Quick access to the Edens Expressway (I-94) makes commuting a breeze. Each unit (~1,200 sq. ft.) boasts a generous 19x15 living and dining room combination, eat-in kitchens, and abundant natural light. The partially finished basement provides additional living or workspace possibilities with two extra rooms (heated), a workbench area, washer and dryer, and ample storage space. Additional highlights include updated windows, separate utilities and HVAC systems with central air conditioning, enclosed rear porch/stairwell, concrete patio, and a one and a half car garage. Whether you're looking to expand your investment portfolio or live in one unit while renting the other, this well-maintained property offers outstanding value, flexibility, and location. Sold "as is."
