Tremendous potential in a stellar location for this large & lovely red brick 1891 Queen Anne style row-house originally designed by the renowned Chicago architect Joseph L. Silsbee, known for the Lincoln Park Conservatory among other city treasures. Generous space on 3 levels with high ceilings, a bath on every level and a smart layout that maximizes room sizes and functionality plus a full unfinished basement. Decent enough condition with a long-time owner who's cared for the property for decades; but would benefit from a complete rehab throughout. Full-height basement has space for a family room, bedroom and laundry, machines already included. Brick-walled back yard could be repurposed to accommodate parking off-alley. Exceptional walking area with renowned shops & restaurants including Vanille Patisserie, Riccardo Trattoria, RJ Grunts, and Esme right on the doorstep plus striking distance to Francis W Parker School, Latin School, Lincoln Elementary School and LaSalle Foreign Language Academy; also the Lincoln Park Zoo, North Avenue Beach and farmer's markets.
