This 4-bedroom townhouse at 2757 N. Greenview in Lincoln Park came on the market last February. It is actually on the edge of Lincoln Park and Lakeview (but since it’s on the south side of Diversey, it is technically Lincoln Park.) Some of you may recognize it from your travels down Diversey as this townhouse is […]

We chattered about this Fannie Mae-owned 3-bedroom townhouse at 642 N. Armour in West Town several times last year. See our November 2012 chatter here. Back then, it was listed for $309,000 but most of you thought, given its condition and the neighborhood, that it would sell in the low $200,000s. Most of you thought […]

Some of you will remember this 2-bedroom townhouse at 2820 N. Greenview in West Lakeview. See our March 2012 chatter here. It had originally sold in 2010 but then came back on the market in 2012 as “completely remodeled.” It was removed from the market last May but has come back on to test it […]

This 3-bedroom corner unit townhouse at 1816 N. Dayton in Lincoln Park came on the market in November 2012. The listing says it has had over $100,000 in upgrades including all new windows. The kitchen has custom features including Kraftmaid cabinets and Juperna Persia granite counter tops along with stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms have […]

Many of you will remember this 2-bedroom townhouse at 1732 N. Mohawk in Lincoln Park because we chattered about it several times in 2011. We last asked if it would sell in 2011. The answer was “no.” See our December 2011 chatter here. It was reduced down to $375,000 or $2,500 under the 2002 purchase […]

This 3-bedroom townhouse at 2709 N. Racine in Lincoln Park came on the market in February 2013. It is a short sale. It was briefly off the market before returning listed at the same price of $425,000. Someone recently complained that the townhouses mainly sport the “same” floorplan. This 1700 square foot townhouse has some […]

This 3-bedroom townhouse at 3157 N. Honore in North Center came on the market in February. These are selling fast as there is a sister 3-bedroom in the same complex with the same square footage that is already under contract. You can see pictures of that one at 3147 N. Honore here for comparison. This […]

This 3-bedroom townhouse at 832 W. Wolfram in Lakeview recently came on the market. The listing calls it a townhouse but as you can see from the picture above, it appears to be behind the house in the front. That’s the door to the right behind the house in front. Is it a coach house? […]

We last chattered about this 3-bedroom townhouse at 1246 W. Oakdale in Lakeview in January 2013. See our previous chatter here. Some of you will remember it as the epic thread that included a debate (again) about the city versus the suburbs. But those of you who did comment on the property thought it would […]

This 3-bedroom townhouse at 344 W. Dickens in East Lincoln Park just came on the market. It is part of an 8-unit group of fee simple townhouses that were built in 1962 that don’t have a monthly HOA fee. They only pay a yearly maintenance fee which, in the case of this unit, is $215 […]
