6016 N Ionia Avenue Chicago IL 60646 | MLS #MRD12677313

Welcome to this move-in-ready brick home in one of Sauganash’s most desirable pockets, surrounded by significant new-construction activity and long-term neighborhood value. Set near recently sold and listed luxury new builds, this property creates an excellent opportunity for buyers to enjoy the home as-is, expand in the future, or explore adding another level or rear addition similar to nearby homes, subject to zoning and permit approval. The bright, open main level has been freshly painted throughout, with hardwood floors newly sanded and refinished in a matte finish. It features upgraded kitchen with quartz countertops, rich cabinetry, and KitchenAid appliances, including a built-in microwave, dishwasher, oven, and a gas cooktop with exterior-vented range hood. The finished lower level adds valuable living space, including a third full bath, a full-fledged workshop, wired speakers, and generous storage. A flexible room can serve as a home office, guest room, fitness area, or potential bedroom. Practical upgrades include an approximately four-year-old heating system and water heater, sump pump, main-sewer backwater check valve for added protection, camera-ready monitoring setup, motion-sensing floodlights, and a 240V outlet for EV charging. The exceptionally long gated driveway accommodates approximately four to five vehicles, providing rare parking convenience, with room to add an attached or detached garage. Enjoy a private backyard with garden space, deck, and a professionally maintained lawn and trees, all within close proximity to Sauganash Trail, Sauganash Park, Starbucks, Whole Foods, and neighborhood favorites. Sauganash is known for its beautiful tree-lined streets, strong community feel, beloved July 4th parade, festive Halloween traditions, and celebrated Christmas light displays – plus top-rated schools (Sauganash Elementary, Taft High School, and nearby Northside College Preparatory) and Queen of All Saints Basilica, a neighborhood landmark. A truly special neighborhood to call home. A rare combination of location, livability, parking, updates and future expansion potential. Some photos have been virtually rendered.
