Exceptional Opportunity on a Block Seeing nearby New Construction! This spacious single-family home offers a unique related-living setup with multiple living areas that provide flexibility for extended family, guests, a home office, airbnb/VRBO or additional private space-all while remaining a single-family home. This distinction can be a valuable feature for buyers who want the functionality of separate living spaces without the property being classified as a traditional multi-unit building. The home does need to be cleaned out and offers an opportunity for the next owner to bring their vision and finishing touches to the space. The kitchens have already been completely rehabbed, providing a strong head start on the renovation process. With new construction taking place on the block, the surrounding area presents an exciting opportunity for continued neighborhood investment and potential future appreciation. Whether you're looking for a flexible home for your family, a related-living arrangement, or an opportunity to add value in an area experiencing new development, this property is worth a closer look. Being Sold AS IS, WHERE IS.
Irving Park, located between the North Branch of the Chicago River and the Kennedy Expressway, is a residential and transit-linked Chicago neighborhood with historic boulevards and a broad park-and-trail network. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Six Corners junction at Irving Park Road, Cicero Avenue, and Milwaukee Avenue, where old storefronts, corner bakeries, and long-running eateries keep the sidewalks active. Architectural identity leans on classic Chicago bungalows and sturdy two-flats, with leafy blocks radiating from Independence Park. Old Irving Brewing Co. anchors the local beer-and-pizza scene, while the Irish American Heritage Center adds a cultural calendar in a landmark building. The CTA Blue Line and Metra at Irving Park stitch the area to downtown and O’Hare, and the North Branch Trail frames weekend miles along the river.

The primary purpose of the RS districts is to accommodate the development of detached houses on individual lots. It is intended that RS zoning be applied in areas where the land-use pattern is characterized predominately by detached houses on individual lots or where such a land use pattern is desired in the future. The Zoning Ordinance includes three RS districts - RS3 - which are differentiated primarily on the basis of minimum lot area requirements and floor area ratios.
