Rehabbers rejoice! Nestled in a neighborhood of storybook homes for nearly a century, this faded beauty is primed for a makeover. Clad in beautiful, multicolored brick and adorned with a castle-like crown, this 6 bedroom 2 bath two-flat has undeniable curb appeal. The first floor unit has quirky charm. Relax in the light-filled living room and revel in the unit's numerous closets. Admire the formal dining room's elegant chandelier and butcher block countertops in the kitchen. High ceilings grace the second floor. This unit also has 3 bedrooms and 1 bath. Its bright kitchen features a vintage range and precious old fashioned pantry. Original hardwood floors, doors and hardware give you glimpses of this building's former glory. An enclosed rear staircase gives you access to all levels. The full unfinished basement offers vast storage and unlimited potential. Chill and grill on the backyard's brick paver patio. Occupied by this family since 1968 (and never rented during that time), this fine fixer upper is now ready for you. Luckily located three blocks from Legion Park and mere minutes from Lincoln Square. Welcome home! Property sold As Is. MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED. HIGHEST AND BEST OFFERS DUE BY 5:00 P.M. ON MONDAY MARCH 24TH. NO ESCALATION CLAUSES OR LOVE LETTERS WILL BE ACCEPTED. THANK YOU!
