About this home
Single Family · Built 1927 · Historic
Move-in ready and fully updated, this Southwest Side home delivers the space today's buyers are hunting for: 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths, a finished basement, a huge backyard, and a 2-car garage. The main level offers a comfortable, functional layout that works for real life, whether you're growing into more room, hosting family, or setting up dedicated work-from-home space. With five bedrooms, you'll have flexibility for a home office, guest room, playroom, gym, or a private retreat for teens or extended family. Downstairs, the finished basement expands your living and entertaining options with a makeshift wet bar/kitchenette area, ideal for game days, gatherings, movie nights, or a separate hangout space when everyone needs their own zone. Outside, the oversized yard is ready for summer cookouts, pets, gardening, and room to run, while the 2-car garage adds everyday convenience and extra storage. Located near Midway Airport with easy access to the city and surrounding suburbs, this home checks the boxes that matter most: updated condition, real bedroom count, bonus living space, and outdoor room to breathe. Come see how much home you can get, and how easily it can fit the way you live. *Buyer agents read showing instructions/notes*
