This 3-bedroom historic farmhouse at 315 W. Eugenie in the Old Town Triangle Landmark District came on the market listed for just $500,000 only 3 days ago. (No- you aren’t reading that price wrong.) By the time you read this, it may already be too late to make a bid as “highest and best” offers were […]

We’ve chattered about this 3-bedroom single family home at 3408 N. Bosworth in Southport several times over the years. Check out our last chatter in May 2013 here. Yes- it sits right next to the Brown Line tracks. It’s now been on the market for over 3 months without a sale. However, there’s now a […]

We last chattered about this 3-bedroom cottage at 1441 N. Campbell in East Humboldt Park in March 2013. See our chatter here. If you recall, it was on the market for 5 months in 2012 during the peak spring/summer buying season and didn’t sell. It returned to the market at the same time of the […]

This 3-bedroom brick bungalow at 2600 W. Coyle in the Indian Boundary Park neighborhood of West Ridge came on the market in May 2013. Built in 1921 on an oversized 32×124 corner lot, it has an unusual 1-car attached garage. Two of the 3 bedrooms are on the main floor with a master bedroom on […]

A couple of years ago a few of you wrote me wondering about this 1-bedroom cottage at 2151 N. Magnolia in West Lincoln Park. Back in June 2010, it had come on the market at $905,000 but was quickly reduced to $829,000. It never sold and was withdrawn in July 2011 listed at $829,000. Built […]

We last chattered about this 3-bedroom Georgian at 6244 N. Kirkwood in Sauganash in January 2013. See our prior chatter here. At that time, it was listed at $829,000 which many of you thought was simply too high for a home that needed updating. Since that chatter, it has been reduced several times and is […]

This 3-bedroom brick English Tudor at 4852 W. Catalpa in Forest Glen recently came on the market. Built in 1939, it is on an oversized 30×164 lot and has a back deck and 2-car garage. Two bedrooms are on the second floor with a bathroom while the master bedroom is on the main floor. This […]

This 3-bedroom French Normandy single family home at 1901 N. Newcastle in Galewood recently came on the market. It had been for sale previously- between 2009 and 2011. Built in 1948 on an oversized corner lot measuring 37×125, it has hardwood floors throughout the first floor and crown molding. There is a marble fireplace in […]

We last chattered about this 4-bedroom single family home at 1750 W. Grace in North Center in December 2009. But long time Chatterers will remember it from the early days because we chattered about it many times over the first few years of this site. It was even featured on an episode of HGTV and […]

This 6-bedroom Queen Anne at 3500 N. Janssen in Southport has been on and off the market since May 2012. It is located in a popular sub-section of Southport, near the Southport brown line stop and all the shops and restaurants. However, it’s not in the coveted Blaine school district but is in Hamilton instead. […]
