Rare opportunity to invest in this restored & renovated, stately Evanston 3-Flat! Start fresh with new tenants at the estimated rental rates of $2,250 per unit or more. ------ Originally built in 1928, with fine exterior and interior details and flourishes, the owner just completed a multi-year renovation to create beautiful open kitchens, renovated bathrooms, hardwood flooring throughout, restored ceilings & walls, all new plumbing & lighting fixtures, including ceiling fans and more. ------ All three kitchens feature quartz counters, brand new stainless-steel appliances including built-in microwaves & dishwashers. The restoration includes mostly new windows, a new roof, new rear concrete walk-way, and a gravel driveway for parking. Each unit has 3 bedrooms, a large living room, and a full-size, separate dining room, that opens up to the kitchen, plus an unheated, fully enclosed bonus room for storage, relaxation, or full-time seasonal use. ------ The renovation includes new electric service to the building and all new wiring to each unit. Also, plumbing lines to each unit were replaced. The ground level garage space(2) are now used for storage on one side and laundry on the other side. A new owner can obtain coin/pay operated laundry machines or regular laundry machines to be installed at the supply, drain, gas, and electric line connections. ------ Since the building has been vacant for 2+ years, we do not have reliable estimates for utilities and maintenance, however, minimal lawn care is needed and the tenants pay their own cooking gas and electric. The single basement, boiler serves radiator heat to each unit. ------ You or your tenants will enjoy a convenient lifestyle with easy access to the Crown Recreation Center and Library, Washington Elementary School, 4 Suns Juice Bar, Walgreens, Food4Less, Valli Grocery & more.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
