Rehab? Try Edgewater Glen in Chicago



Photo by yochicago.com


I have been looking at many single family homes on the North Side for under $700K and feel you can get a solid home on a nice sized lot in the Edgewater Glen area (located along side of Andersonville and Lakewood-Balmoral) for under $600K. There are a couple homes in the $550K range that will need about $50K in professional renovation (or really good self help handy work) to be very pleasant. The area of Edgewater located roughly 5600 N to 6400 N and 900 W to 1400 W really supports updates and structual improvements when looking to re-sell the home.

Your local Red Line stop would be W Bryn Mawr at N Broadway.
Edgewater includes the following neighborhoods: Andersonville, Edgewater Beach, Edgewater Glen, Edgewater Triangle, Highlands of Edgewater, Lakewood Balmoral, Magnolia Glen and Rosehill.
ZIP codes: 60660, 60640

This isn't flip your house material. Just a great place to buy a single family home to live on the North Side and add value.
