Endless possibilities in the heart of Lincoln Park-this historic 1880 residence offers nearly 3,000 square feet of living space, soaring 10-foot ceilings, and beautiful original stained-glass windows that showcase the craftsmanship and charm of a bygone era. Featuring 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this expansive property presents a rare opportunity for both investors and homeowners alike.

The home also offers 4 fireplaces, two on each floor, adding warmth and character throughout the space. Outdoor living is equally inviting with a private deck off the second-floor primary bedroom and an additional deck off the first-floor kitchen, ideal for entertaining or enjoying quiet mornings above the tree-lined street. Set on a 3,125-square-foot lot and complete with a rare 2-car detached garage, the property combines historic character, generous scale, and exceptional potential rarely found in the city. Ideally located just steps from DePaul University and convenient to the Armitage stops for the Chicago 'L' Brown Line and Chicago 'L' Purple Line, this home places the very best of Lincoln Park at your doorstep.
