You wouldn’t be living in anything cookie cutter in this 4-bedroom mid-century modern brick ranch at 1310 Brassie in south suburban Flossmoor.

The home has stunning […]
We’ve chattered about the distress sales in 10 E. Ontario in River North numerous times over the past few years.

We last chattered about this “true” vintage top floor 2-bedroom at 817 W. George in Lakeview in April 2010. See our April 2010 chatter and pictures here. Since then, it has been reduced nearly $15,000. There is no cookie-cutter here. The home has nearly all of its vintage features intact but has been updated with […]
This unique 4-bedroom 4-bath duplex unit at 400 E. Randolph in Lakeshore East, or the Millennium Park neighborhood, just came on the market.
