Calling savvy rehabbers. DOUBLE LOT. TWO PINS. The potential here is phenomenal. The rarest of finds. This 134 year old home sits on two properties in the heart of Jefferson Park. Only 2 owners since its build! Wow the history on this one. Amazing vintage details for the true connoisseur, the woodwork, the built-ins, original glass tiles in kitchen and ceramic tiles in baths. Renovated in the 1940s this house has original features plus 1940 rehab updates (equally as amazing) plus some modern updates that made it home for the current owners. The space features 3 beds and 2 full baths, one half bath (and a rough basement bath). Utilized as two separate living areas there is a second kitchen on the upper level along with a full bed and bath and living space, the lower level features one large bed, one small bed, and one bath remodeled in the past 15 years, and a small half bath that is quite vintage and unique. The main kitchen features original cabinetry, modern white appliances and a built in seating area. A large second story deck overlooks the backyard. This space has loads of space to be integrated into a single family format easily. Native flowers abound in gardens that were tended to for years and owners took care with the mechanicals. Boilers were replaced in the not so distant past, as was roof 7 years ago. All new 200 amp electrical service from the street and updated wiring in locations. Horizontal plumbing lines replaced with copper. Home needs updating and is sold "as is" but has amazing bones and sits on 2 unique lots. Newer 2 car garage plus parking pad for addtl cars. This home has amazing potential and is a truly stunning property. It's for those that can see the long term value of investment in land and a structure with a robust history.
