Get a Duplex Up 2/2 with Multiple Decks in Lincoln Park for $825,000: 811 W. Webster

This 2-bedroom at 811 W. Webster in Lincoln Park came on the market in August 2023.

Built in 1886, 811 W. Webster has 6 units and was converted into condos in 1986. There’s garage parking and outdoor decks.

The building appears to have gotten a new garage door since I took my picture, above, in 2021.

This unit has a private entrance and the listing calls it an “urban oasis.”

It is a duplex up with the living spaces on the main floor and the 2 bedrooms on the second floor.

There are hardwood floors throughout and some unique features such as exposed brick and ductwork on the main floor.

The living room has a gas fireplace and doors that open to a deck.

It has an “updated” kitchen open to the dining room with wood cabinets, an island with seating for three, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances and a “chic” backsplash.

There’s also a powder room on the main floor.

The primary suite has a renovated gas fireplace, an en suite updated bath with “spa-like” rain shower, dual sink vanity and a soaking tub.

The primary has a private outdoor terrace.

The second full bath is also on the second floor. There also appears to be outdoor space off the second bedroom as well.

The listing says the furnace was replaced in 2022.

The unit has skylights and the listing says it has 3 terraces and roof rights. It also has the features buyers look for including central air and garage parking which is included.

This building is in the middle of Lincoln Park, near shops and restaurants on Webster and Halsted. It’s also a quick stroll to Oz Park.

This unit was last on the market in June 2020. I thought I had cribbed about it during that time, but I hadn’t. I think it went under contract too quickly.

It’s back on the market at $825,000, or $109,000 more than the 2020 sales price of $716,000.

Will this unit sell quickly again in 2023?

Lauren Mitrick Wood and Laura Davis at Compass have the listing. See the pictures here. No floor plan but it’s in the prior listing.

Or see it at the open house on Saturday, Aug 19, 2023 from 11:30 AM to 1 PM.

Quiet, Charming Luxury in Landmark Village: A Townhouse at 2809 N. Wolcott in Lakeview

This 3-bedroom townhouse in Landmark Village at 2809 N. Wolcott in West Lakeview came on the market in August 2023. The picture above is not the listed townhouse, but it’s of other townhouses in Landmark Village. Because it’s a gated community, I had to shoot from outside the fence.

Built in 1995, Landmark Village is a gated community of townhouses and some single family homes. I couldn’t find how many units are in the community.

The listing for this townhouse says its the largest floor plan in the village.

It has a newly remodeled foyer. The first floor has the garage, a full bathroom and “flex space” which could be used as the third bedroom, an office or family room. It leads to a small patio.

The second floor has refinished hardwood floors and the living room, dining room and kitchen along with a balcony over the driveway.

There is a wood burning fireplace in the living room with a mosaic marble surround.

The kitchen is a “chef’s dream” and was “completely updated” in 2022. It has green cabinets and quartz counter tops with brass details and stainless steel appliances.

The third floor has skylights and two bedrooms along with one full bathroom with a double vanity. The bathroom is “new” in 2022.

The townhouse has central air and a one car garage.

The listing says this is near “famous” Hamlin Park and in the Jahn school district. It also says you can live a “life of unparalleled comfort and quiet, charming luxury.”

Listed in August 2023 at $565,000, that’s $115,000 above the 2020 sales price.

Will this seller get the premium?

Olivia Carlson and Paul Siebert at @Properties Christie’s has the listing. See the pictures here. No floor plan but there is one in the 2020 listing photos.

The custom kitchen has white cabinets with a large island and high-end stainless steel appliances by Subzero, Bosch and Thermador.

Top Floor 1-Bedroom in the Theophil Studios for $249,900: 143 W. Burton Place in Old Town

This top floor 1-bedroom in the Theophil Studios at 143 W. Burton Place in Old Town came on the market in August 2023.

Built in 1892, the Theophil Studios is one of the Edgar Miller historic buildings in the West Burton Place Historic District. It has 6 units and there are some outdoor parking spaces behind the building.

There is no elevator. The building has storage and laundry in the basement.

From the Chicago Landmark Commission Report on West Burton Place:

Original construction: 1892; artist renovation: 1940

The Theophil Studios complex is a three-story, six-unit condominium building. Originally built in 1892 as a three-story flat building, the property today is a rectangular red brick, stucco and stone corner structure that fills the lot lines. The original structure was substantially remodeled in 1940. Generally Art Moderne in style, the geometrically composed principal façade has a vertical stucco panel with stacked circular windows beside a red brick panel with rectangular windows. Portions of the windows feature stained glass elements.

The east and south eleva-tions are comprised of white stucco accented with red brick and painted wooden features, in-cluding a partially concealed outside staircase. Decorative sculptural panels by artist Edgar Miller accent the ground floor and principal entry. The architect for the remodeling was Frank LaPasso. The front yard wall and fence at grade and cantilevered entryway roof were designed as part of the 1940s renovation and are considered significant.

This unit has most of its original features including original storage cabinets, parquet floors and a wood burning fireplace.

It has a skylight in the living/dining room.

It also is a corner unit with two walls of casement stained glass windows. There is a round window in the bedroom.

The kitchen has wood cabinets, stone counter tops and stainless steel appliances along with a peninsula that seats two.

The unit has a wall cooling unit but no washer/dryer in the unit. There is laundry in the basement (prior listing pictures shows 2 sets of washers/dryers.) There’s no parking but it’s available in the neighborhood.

It has a balcony with views over LaSalle.

This building is just steps away from the shops and restaurants on Wells in Old Town as well as the Gold Coast.

Listed at $249,900, it sold during the start of the pandemic, in August 2020, for $242,000.

Is this a deal for Edgar Miller lovers?

A 2-Bedroom West Loop Penthouse with 23 Ft Floor-to-Ceiling Windows at 909 W. Washington

This 2-bedroom duplex penthouse at 909 W. Washington in the West Loop came on the market in August 2023.

Built in 2002, 909 W. Washington has 108 units and heated attached garage parking.

It has door-staff, an exercise room and a common terrace.

If this unit looks familiar, that’s because we chattered about it 10 years ago as prices were just starting to recover from the housing bust but the West Loop was not yet the red-hot neighborhood it has become. In fact, it had been on the market for months by the time we chattered about it.

Many of you seemed concerned about the wall of tall windows and actually heating/cooling that space. You can see our April 2013 chatter here.

If you recall, this unit is a corner penthouse with floor-to-ceiling windows extending up 23 feet in the living/dining/kitchen with skyline views. The 2013 listing said it was only one of two penthouse units in the building.

There are hardwood floors throughout, except for the second bedroom which has carpet.

The unit is a duplex with a second floor loft which could be used as a den or third bedroom. It is open to the main living space and also has hardwood floors.

The primary suite also has tall ceilings, a walk-in-closet and an en suite bathroom with a double vanity.

The second bedroom, which is near the entrance to the unit, does have a window (see the listing pictures from the 2022 sale).

The listing says the kitchen and baths were “recently” updated. It appears they were updated for the 2022 listing.

The kitchen has white cabinets, stainless steel appliances, a tile backsplash and an island with seating for three.

There’s a balcony off the living room with skyline views.

This unit has the features that buyers look for including central air, washer/dryer in the unit and one heated garage parking space is included.

This building is near the shops and restaurants of Halsted and Randolph Street as well as Fulton Market.

Listed at $775,000, that’s $32,500 above the May 2022 sales price of $742,500.

Will they get the premium just 15 months later?

Sam Johnston at Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices has the listing. See the pictures here.

Sorry, no floor plan but the 2022 listing has one. You can see the pictures and floor plan here (also includes a picture that shows the window in the second bedroom.) But Redfin is “down” tonight so I will put in the link in the morning.

Or you can see it at the Open House, on Saturday, August 12, 2023 from 1 pm to 3 pm.

3-Bedroom Benjamin Marshall Maisonette Returns for $649,000: 1544 N. State Parkway in the Gold Coast

This 3-bedroom maisonette in 1544 N. State Parkway in the Gold Coast came on the market in August 2023.

Many of you will remember this maisonette from 2019 and 2020 as we chattered about it several times but it never sold.

1550 N. State Parkway was designed by Benjamin Marshall in 1912 and has just 32 units. It’s exterior is covered in limestone and it overlooks Lincoln Park.

The building has 24/7 door staff, bike storage, an exercise room, a common rooftop deck, a wine cellar, a guest apartment and walk-in storage units. There’s no parking.

But remember, this unit is in 1544 N. State Parkway, the shorter side building that is seen above in my poorly taken picture. There are 2 units in that building which share the courtyard in the front. These units have 2 separate entrances, either through the landscaped courtyard or through the building’s lobby.

This maisonette is the top floor, penthouse level, unit.

If you recall, the last time we chattered about it, the unit had sold in an auction from the bank in 2016. It was then renovated with a new kitchen and baths and put on the market. It doesn’t appear to have any of the original vintage features but there is crown molding in the living/dining/kitchen.

It has a bespoke kitchen with modern cabinets and a 10’4″ island with slabstone top. It has a 60″ Thermador, 48″ Wolf 6 burner range oven and Macauba stone countertops.

This kitchen has 2 islands with 2 separate sinks. The second island is a wet bar with a built-in wine chiller.

There are 7 inch wide plank hardwood floors throughout the main living areas.

The primary bedroom has an en suite bath with heated floors and a steam shower.

The second bathroom is “spa-like” with heated floors.

This unit has some of the features buyers look for including a side-by-side washer/dryer in the unit and space pac cooling. There’s no parking, however.

This building is adjacent to Lincoln Park and is near the shops and restaurants of Old Town and East Lincoln Park.

You may recall, the unit was originally listed in May 2019 at $1,049,999 but never sold and was withdrawn. It has come back on the market in August 2023 for $649,000.

Will this price get the sale done?

Amir Aouad at @properties Christie’s has the listing now. See the pictures and floor plan here.
