Listing information updated 3/9/2026 at 5:23pm

This garden-level 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo in the heart of Bronzeville offers a rare opportunity to own a spacious and affordable unit with strong long-term upside in one of Chicago's most vibrant and growing neighborhoods. The unit features over 1,500 square feet of living space with an open layout that includes hardwood floors, stainless steel appliances, a cozy gas-log fireplace, and a versatile den perfect for a home office or flex space. The open kitchen, living, and dining areas create a comfortable flow for everyday living, while central A/C and a private parking space add convenience. The unit was home to a long-term CHA voucher tenant who paid rent consistently and vacated honorably, demonstrating the property's proven rental history and investment potential, and the unit also successfully passed regular CHA inspections during the tenancy. The home does show some normal wear from long-term occupancy and is being sold as-is, giving the next owner the opportunity to update and customize the space to their own taste while building equity. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street just minutes from parks, restaurants, shopping, public transportation, and the lakefront, this solid Bronzeville condo presents a great opportunity for an owner-occupant or investor to enter the market at an attractive price point and create value over time.
