Thanks to “Architect” for pointing out this 1943 2-bedroom Andrew Rebori designed home at 3252 W. Victoria in North Park. It is currently under contract but only after being reduced by $50,000 since July 2009. The home isn’t big, at 1345 square feet, but it has an original Edgar Miller sculpture and an “urban retreat” […]
Spanish revival architecture is rare, but does exist within the Chicago city limits. Patterned after a mix of Spanish and Latin American architectural styles, it is usually characterized by arched doors, beamed ceilings, columns and tiled roofs. This 4-bedroom Spanish revival home at 5232 N. New England in Norwood Park is a good example of […]
This 3-bedroom duplex up penthouse at 1866 N. Halsted in Lincoln Park just came on the market. It has the feeling of a loft, with the open spaces and bright light, without the exposed pipes and other accruments of a “true” loft. The unit has enough square footage, at 2712 square feet, to be a sizable […]
We last chattered about these 2 units which were combined into one 3-bedroom custom built unit at 200 N. Dearborn in the Loop in October 2009. See our prior chatter here. Since then, the unit has been reduced by another $150,000. It is now listed for 60% less than its original listing in August 2009. […]

This 4-bedroom rowhouse at 1919 N. Lincoln Park in East Lincoln Park (or some might still call this Old Town) looks like it could be found in London. Built in 1888, it has the vintage bones but also all the modern conveniences such as central air and 2 parking spaces (which the listing says can be […]
This 1-bedroom condo at 123 S. Green is in the recently constructed 2-building complex called The Emerald. The Emerald’s construction brought a Starbucks to Halsted and the buildings were meant to capitalize on the growing interest in living in Greektown. The listing for this unit says it is “upgraded” with a gourmet chef’s dream kitchen […]
We’ve chattered about this 4-bedroom single family home at 1750 W. Grace in the North Center neighborhood of Lakeview many times since 2008. See our last chatter in June 2009 here. The 4-bedroom house seems to be a great condo alternative, with its 2-car garage and both front porch and back deck. It also has […]
We last chattered about this Victorian vintage 2-bedroom at 4110 N. Southport in Lakeview in September 2009. See our prior chatter and pictures here. The unit has a full-sized dining room with vintage built-ins as well as a generous sized kitchen which would make it ideal for throwing sophisticated dinner parties. It also has the […]
We’ve chattered about this large 6-bedroom home at 235 W. Menomonee in the heart of the historic Old Town Triangle several times. See our November 2008 chatter here. Since last year it has been reduced by $510,000. It’s also still available to rent and has been reduced from $16,500 a month to $10,000 a month […]
