Description

BELMONT CRAGIN / PORTAGE PARK! Legal 2-flat with a nonconforming garden apartment and a 2-car detached garage. Excellent investment opportunity in the desirable Belmont Cragin/Portage Park neighborhood. This attractive 2 1/2-story brick building also offers the potential for one additional outdoor parking space. The property features approximately 2,800 square feet of above-grade living area, with each floor functioning as a separate unit, making it an ideal income-producing property for investors or owner-occupants. The building includes updated units, hardwood and ceramic tile flooring throughout, a separate building laundry room located in the basement, and a new roof installed in May 2026. The second-floor apartment offers five rooms, two bedrooms, a spacious living room, a separate dining room, a large kitchen with a double pantry and eat-in area, and a ceramic tile bathroom. The garden apartment features a finished living room, two bedrooms, a kitchen with oak cabinetry, a full bathroom, new ceramic tile flooring, and a laundry area. The first floor and garden apartment underwent a complete renovation in 2003. The basement and both apartments have been freshly painted, making the property move-in and rent-ready. The building is equipped with two separate heating systems and two central air conditioning systems. The first-floor apartment and the garden apartment share the laundry room and one central air conditioning system, while the second-floor apartment has its own separate heating and air conditioning system. 2026 New Ejector Pit installed and property is currently serviced by Orkin for routine pest control/preventive maintenance.
