Listing Description

Daily Living Reimagined - Historic Character, Modern Lifestyle Space without the traditional family-home layout. This distinctive 2,300-square-foot Blue Island historic home offers a flexible 4-bedroom, 2-bath layout, 3-car garage, and a setting designed for today's active lifestyle.

Perfect for the buyer who values space, convenience, entertaining, and the ability to work from home without sacrificing character or location. Just a 10-minute walk to two Metra stations with service into downtown Chicago, commuting is remarkably convenient.

Blue Island's restaurants, coffee shops, bars, entertainment, and seasonal events are also just minutes away by foot or car. Inside, the traditional 4-bedroom footprint has been thoughtfully configured to provide versatility beyond a conventional family layout.

Whether you need dedicated work-from-home space, a home gym, guest accommodations, creative space, or comfortable rooms for entertaining, this home offers the flexibility to make the space work for you. The home's late-19th-century character adds a sense of history and individuality rarely found in newer construction, while the generous square footage provides the room modern living demands.

Set on a hill and positioned along a well-traveled emergency route, the location offers an added advantage during heavy rain and winter weather. Outside, the pavered patio/driveway creates a private entertaining area where you can set up tables and umbrellas, enjoy music, and relax in a surprisingly secluded setting between a quiet church and private alley.

Remember Blue Island is an arts city. Many amazing creative artists and art events take place throughout the city all year. Historic charm. Generous space. Convenient transportation. Private outdoor living. A home designed around the way you actually live. Home is being Sold "AS IS"
