In the heart of the city in one of Chicago’s “younger” neighborhoods Garfield Ridge sits this gem of a 1950’s 3 bedroom brick bungalow. It has hardwood floors (under the carpet to the best of seller’s knowledge) in the living room and 2 of the bedrooms, plaster walls with coved ceilings and kitchen with eat-in area. Basement was waterproofed for peace of mind. The furnace and central air are only 7 years young. Two car garage has a party door perfect for the upcoming summer entertaining months. Check out this low price and think of the equity you can make on your own. Walking distance to Wentworth park and a short drive to many others park districts. I think you will agree GR has a southside suburban experience, but the plethora of transportation modes puts them in touch with the downtown scene as the Loop district is just 12 miles to the north. Better hurry this won’t last.
