Investment Overview
1535 W Grace St presents the opportunity to acquire a well-maintained four-unit property in Chicago's Lakeview neighborhood, one block west of the Southport Corridor. Built in 1898, the property consists of a three-story main building with three three-bedroom, one-bathroom apartments and a rear coach house containing one one-bedroom, one-bathroom apartment. A corner lot at Grace St. and Bosworth Ave gives every apartment an abundance of natural light. The first-floor apartment is a duplex-down with finished lower-level living space and an updated kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. The upper-floor apartments retain original hardwood floors, ornate fireplace mantels, and bay windows. Every unit is separately metered with its own furnace, hot water heater, and tenants pay all heat, gas, and electric. Ownership has kept the property in sound operating condition: the roof received a new layer approximately two years ago, the windows are vinyl, and the plumbing is copper. The property also includes owner-operated coin laundry and four storage lockers that generate additional income.
