The Sister Penthouse Sold in Only a Week: A 4-Bedroom Duplex Up at 1122 W. Diversey in Lakeview
This 4-bedroom top floor duplex up at 1122 W. Diversey in Lakeview came on the market 7 days ago.
If it looks familiar, that’s because the sister unit next door at 1124 W. Diversey #3W came on the market in January 2013 and went under contract in just a week.
You can see the listing for that unit here. It hasn’t closed yet.
Both units have a similar layout.
There are 22 foot cathedral ceilings in the south facing living room.
The kitchen has maple cabinets, stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops.
2 bedrooms are on the main floor and 2 are on the second floor along with an open sitting room that overlooks the living space below.
There are skylights and 2 large rear decks.
The unit has central air, washer/dryer and garage parking.
The sister unit came on the market at $550,000.
This unit has listed at $569,000.
It’s already been a week but will it have similar luck as the other unit?
Jenna Smith at Redfin has the listing. See the pictures here.

any mccrapbox owners out there dealing with leaks today??
This was my first thought too helmethofer. I was thinking, “I wouldn’t want to be in a newer duplex down today.”
The doors leading to the front outdoor areas make me nervous. All I can imagine is the drain backing up and the water just collecting in that patio area and pouring into my family room.
Lots of flooded basements in Oak Park today. We’re dry so far but not sure we’ll stay that way.
Re this listing – I like the finishes in the one that’s already under contract more, and it was come on at a lower price. I have a hard time seeing how this unit will sell for more than it’s neighbor.
City isn’t bad flood wise except for a few parts near the rivers in the north, the burbs get the flooding the worst since there is very little thought put into drainage except for easment ditches.
But I’d pretty much not want to live in a duplex down period, nor a garden unit, especially on a day like today
Terrible curb appeal. Ugly facade stuck onto a cinder block box? Not for me. I guess people are desperate to live in this neighborhood though.
Schools closed in Oak Park due to flooding.
“It’s already been a week but will it have similar luck as the other unit?”
Looks like it’s already under contract.
Nothing better than a view of a car dealership out the front.
Not a fan of Diversey west of Seminary.
basements of all kinds have gotten hit hard, not just McCrap boxes.
