Property Description
Step into a piece of Chicago history at this remarkable 1911 home offering 4 bedrooms, 2 full and 2 half baths, incredible original character, and the kind of space and potential that is increasingly difficult to find. From the moment you enter, you'll appreciate the craftsmanship of another era-beautiful hardwood floors, substantial millwork, stained and leaded glass accents, multiple fireplaces, a formal front staircase plus a convenient back staircase, and gracious room sizes throughout. The main level features an enclosed front porch, welcoming foyer, expansive living room, formal dining room with gorgeous wainscoting and coffered ceiling, and a kitchen ready for its next chapter. Upstairs you'll find four generously sized bedrooms and two full baths. But the possibilities don't stop there. A massive unfinished walk-up attic offers exceptional bonus space and future possibilities, while the full unfinished basement provides even more storage, workshop, recreation, or improvement potential. Outside may be one of the property's biggest surprises-a huge, beautifully maintained fenced backyard with mature landscaping and an incredible amount of green space for a Chicago home, plus a 2-car detached garage. This home has been loved for generations and is ready for a new owner to bring fresh ideas and updates while preserving the details that make it special. Not a cookie-cutter house and not a quick flip-this is an opportunity to restore, reimagine, and make a truly distinctive Chicago home your own. Tremendous space, character, history, and upside at 1616 W Jarvis.
