This post is for G who requested a special category be created over 2 years ago called “knife catchers” so we could track this property at 3024 N.

The unit had all the bells and whistles including central air and an in-unit […]

Many of you will remember this 3-bedroom house at 3652 N. Hermitage in Lakeview just from seeing the kitchen which was the original kitchen with the older stove and cabinets.
