NEEDS EVERYTHING! As Is Rider required. Contact co-list with questions. Old floor plan under Additional Information. Outstanding opportunity to own a beautiful brick 3-flat built in the glory days when Chicago's finest lived in huge apartments 1/2 block from the lake, near the Edgewater Beach Ballroom and Charlie Chaplin's movies studio. Few of these grand ladies remain, and this one needs a lot of work (needs new roof, plumbing, electric, for starters). The 1st and 2nd floors have always been rentals. The 1st floor was just refreshed in 2023 and is virtually staged. The 2nd has been happily rented to the same family for the last 13 years. Both are updated to varying degrees. The 3rd floor was occupied by the owners for the last 50 years and needs a total gut. All apartments are 4 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, Terrazzo floor curved sunrooms, huge living rooms with the original fireplaces (now decorative) Cabinets along the wide hallway with curved ceiling, master suite, secondary suite, 3rd bedroom and the old "maid's suite" next to updated kitchens. The enormous, vaulted ceiling dining room has original French doors opening to what may have been the butler's staging area but can now be an elegant office. The enclosed back porch is currently used for storage but could be added to the kitchen or finished into a second office. The basement has a high ceiling, large storage rooms, laundry room. full bath and a partially finished garden apartment. There are outdoor garden areas on both sides of the building, and a 4-car brick garage.
