Cash Buyers Dream! Nestled in the historic South Shore neighborhood of Chicago, this vacant and empty three-story townhome offers a unique opportunity for someone with a vision for revitalization. With its classic brick exterior, this home stands as a blank canvas waiting to be transformed into a stylish and modern urban dwelling. This townhouse has just undergone significant upgrades, boasting a new roof (2022-2023), gutters (2022-2023), tuckpointing (2022-2023) and new Feldco windows and doors throughout (2022-2023). As you step inside, you'll find a space stripped down to the studs, offering limitless possibilities for customization and design. The interior spans three floors, awaiting the touch of an enthusiastic renovator. The neighborhood is known for its rich history and cultural diversity, making it a vibrant place to call home once your renovation is complete. Conveniently located near public transportation, parks, schools, and local amenities, it is also close to the Jackson Park Highlands, lakefront and the future Obama Center complex. Whether you're looking to renovate and sell for a profit, turn it into a rental property, or make it your own home, this vacant townhouse offers a range of possibilities for a wise investor.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
