Crib Chatter

This 3-bedroom vintage row house at 1845 N. Halsted in Lincoln Park came on the market in September 2016.

It’s actually the building behind this main building- where the realtor sign is in the picture.

If it looks familiar that’s because we chattered about it when it was last on the market in February 2013. You can see that chatter here.

Back in 2013, this row house was red brick but it has since been painted- is that yellow and green/gray?

It has three levels with two bedrooms on the second floor and one bedroom in the basement.

The basement also has a family room.

The kitchen has 42 inch cabinets, quartz counter tops, stainless steel appliances and a glass subway tile backsplash.

The row house also has an original stain glass window and crown molding.

It has central air and an outdoor parking space.

This is the third sale of this property in the last 5 years. They are asking $650,000, or 14% more than the 2013 selling price of $569,500.

Will they get the premium?

Michael Shenfeld at Berkshire Hathaway KoenigRubloff has the listing. See the pictures here.
