Incredible restoration or redevelopment opportunity at one of the most architecturally significant properties in Logan Square. Revered architect Hermann Gaul, famous for designing some of Chicago’s most significant churches and schools, drew only a few residential buildings in the city, this being one of them. Large covered balconies overlook the boulevard. The facade is amazing, abound with ornate limestone and brick details. Large window openings and great setbacks flood the interior with natural light.

The layouts are huge; with 4 bedroom apartments and multiple living spaces on each of the top two floors. The lower level has a finished 3 bedroom apartment in the front and common storage and laundry in the rear. The interiors include original features like hardwood floors with ornate inlays, radiant heat, handsome wood windows, stained glass, built-ins, and terracotta fireplaces. This 50′ x 175′ lot has R4 zoning which allows for up to 8 apartments. There are beautiful gardens with outdoor space on the south side of the building and a large backyard. There is a 3-car brick garage with matching face brick. Located along stunning Humboldt Boulevard, surrounded by residential and commercial development. Walk to Parson’s, Giant, Scofflaw, Middlebrow, Gretel, the new Small Cheval and so much more. 12 minute walk to the CTA Blue Line, and just 1 block north of the 606 trail.
