House hunting on the 4300 block of North Claremont, North Center

We showed a new house listing on the 4300 block of North Claremont in North Center to our clients this past weekend. The block has a private feel.  It's a little unusual in that North Claremont crosses one-way West Cullom (east bound traffic) and then stops at West Hutchinson... where you can only turn east to North Oakley... which is one-way heading north. The several one-ways and the short block keeps the traffic low in this active location.


Another unique aspect of the block is it is adjacent to Welles Park.  You can stand on the sidewalk and look right at the old play-lot on the south side of the park.  The tennis courts are also at the end of the block. The new play-lot and the amenity filled field house are located on the north end of the park.  Of course, you are also steps from many restaurants, bars and commercial amenities along North Lincoln Av.

In any event, it's a neat block in a great North Center location.  The block is also located in the popular and desirable Coonley School districtHome sales in Coonley school district have a median price of about $800,000.

This double (triple?) lot gorgeous newer construction home sits on the 4300 block of North Claremont.  The block features a good mix of old and new homes...mostly single family houses with a few small multi-units (photo Eric Rojas)
