A 2-Bedroom with 2-Car Parking in a Courtyard Building for $499,000: 4410 N. Paulina in Ravenswood
This 2-bedroom at 4410 N. Paulina in Ravenswood came on the market in June 2026. Sorry, I don’t have a picture of this building.
4410 N. Paulina is a vintage courtyard building with 9 units. It has gated parking behind the building.
This unit has some of its vintage features like refinished hardwood floors, a separate foyer, and a separate dining room.
There’s a decorative fireplace in the dining room.
It has a large, eat-in kitchen with white cabinets and a new island, which seats two, with what looks like a wood countertop, and stainless steel appliances.
There’s a walk-in closet in the primary bedroom.
The main bath has been “updated” and has double sinks. There’s also a half bath.
It has the features that buyers look for including washer/dryer in the unit, split unit air conditioning, and TWO gated side-by-side parking spaces, a rare feature.
There’s extra storage in the building.
The unit also has outdoor space with a small deck off the kitchen.
This building is near restaurants and shops on Montrose and Ashland. It’s also near the Montrose brown line stop and the Ravenswood Metra station as well as several bus lines.
Listed at $499,000, that’s $159,000 above the 2021 sales price of $340,000.
Is there demand for the vintage units in courtyard buildings?

Can’t tell if current owner or prior owner did the updates (kitchen, bath, mini splits)—I’d guess it was the current owner, and that makes the ask seem pretty reasonable.
The bath updates and the a/c are really solid adds (tho the conduit for the a/c looks *terrible*). The kitchen is better, but also sort of worse—does the fridge actually extend into the hallway?? Sure looks like it. The cabinets in the dining area will forever be weird as most owners won’t want a chest freezer there and more cabinets (or the fridge in a big enough space) would have been better over there. And just too little storage overall.
Still, seems like a reasonable value in the current market.
