After a Foreclosure and Bank Owned Sale, 3922 N. Kilbourn in Old Irving Park Returns to the Market
Many of you long time readers will remember this 3-bedroom newer construction house in the Residences of Old Irving Park at 3922 N. Kilbourn in Old Irving Park from our chatter in August 2008.
See the August 2008 chatter and pictures here.
At the time, the house was simply under stress but a foreclosure auction had been scheduled.
Apparently, that was not a success and the house reverted back to the bank for six months before selling in 2009 for nearly 50% off the 2006 purchase price.
After some renovations, the house has returned to the market (this time with its appliances.)
If you recall, the house is built on a double lot of 50×98 and has a two car garage (see the 2008 post for pictures of how the house is situated on the lot.)
All 3 bedrooms are upstairs and there appears to be an additional bedroom in the basement as well.
The kitchen has 42 inch cabinets, stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops.
Prime Market Realty has the listing. See more pictures here.

ouch. I know someone on this block about 3 houses down. Not looking forward to sending her this post as they were thinking of moving in the next year. I believe there are still some open lots as well.
this enter development was built at the peak of the bubble. The townhomes surrounding the house on irving have already fallen ionto full scale short sale mode.
sorry HD, i know this is your hood
but i hate all that new development buy the tracks and down milwaukee. its so… suburb/montgomery/the glenn/vinyl siding/new subdivision in a corn field in bublestank feel to it.
“but i hate all that new development buy the tracks and down milwaukee. its so… suburb/montgomery/the glenn/vinyl siding/new subdivision in a corn field in bublestank feel to it.”
I think the blurb in the listing says it best: “Suburbs in OIP.”
nice catch squareD, I missed that little nugget about the burb in the OIP.
the sad thing is they are still building the “burb in the city” places, the recent one i know of is between elston and edgebrook golf course (i think its still forest glenn there)
Any one else freak out when they turned the sirens on? i am so glad we were at the house tonight during the storm.
“Any one else freak out when they turned the sirens on?”
I was freaked out Groove. I went into my basement when the sirens went off! You hardly hear them in the downtown neighborhoods (but I’ve lived in the burbs so I know what it means when they go off.)
sabrina,
one thing the sirens taught me was i need to replace the batteries in my flashlights more frequently.
and also glad you were smart enough to go into the basement. most chicagoans i know dont even know to stay away from windows.
i also found out that my panic level is heightened when you have kids.
