About this home

In the heart of the city in one of Chicago's "younger" neighborhoods Garfield Ridge sits this gem or a 1950's 3 bedroom brick bungalow in mostly original condition. It has hardwood floors (under the carpet to the best of seller's knowledge) in the living room, plaster walls and kitchen with dining room area. With some paint and polish this home will shine once again. Check out the low price and think of the equity you can make your own. Walking distance to Wentworth park and a short drive to many others park districts. I think you will agree GR has a southside suburban experience, but the plethora of transportation modes puts them in touch with the downtown scene as the Loop district is just 12 miles to the north. Better hurry this won't last.
