Super tight Ravenswood Gardens / Ravenswood Manor home sales market

Ravenswood Gardens and Ravenswood Manor neighborhoods are popular for their vintage custom homes and leafy riverside location close to CTA Brown Line transportation. 

Our clients are prepping their home for sale in the Ravenswood Manor neighborhood of the Albany Park Community Area.  The greater area of Ravenswood Gardens (east of the river) / Ravenswood Manor (west of the river) is known for it's custom over-sized bungalows, Craftsmans and stately stuccos. Let us not forget the riverside views, local businesses and great schools.

Ravenswood Gardens / Ravenswood Manor sales area. 

So far in 2022 only five homes have sold in the Ravenswood Gardens / Ravenswood Manor neighborhoods.  About 45 Ravenswood Gardens/ Ravenswood Manor single family homes sold over the past twelve months. The median price of a home sale during that time is about $815,000.  

Currently there are only two homes actively for sale in the above pictured area, both listed at over $1.6M.  Only two homes are currently under contract. Active listings, contracts and sold units reflect incredibly low inventory for this spring market!

Just Sold! Buyer client upgrades to Lincoln Square condo


4755 N Washtenaw, Chicago IL 60625 is a newer construction elevator building with heated attached garage parking. Unit 406 is a a top floor corner unit with contemporary design and great views! Unit photos courtesy of Joie DeGraff, At Properties. We were the buyer agent.


Our buyer client smartly spent many years in a North Center one bedroom apartment saving his money. But after months working from home due to the pandemic and the current low interest rates he decided it was time for an upgrade! We found a real sharp Lincoln Square two bedroom, two bathroom condo with heated attached garage parking.  The Ravenswood Gardens neighborhood location is a walkers paradise with coffee, grocery, restaurants and the CTA Brown Line steps away.

East and south sunlight! In person you get a nice view of the skyline.  The golden hour light is amazing too. There were several available choices in the budget but this top floor corner unit with views was an easy choice.

Great windows and south views. Feels like a treehouse!

The two beds, two baths condo with elevator and garage parking sold for $320,000. If you are looking to buy or sell on the north side of Chicago or the near suburbs please contact us.

Under Contract! Lincoln Square condo sales

 

Our client checks out the huge common roof deck at a Lincoln Square condo. Our current coronavirus situation has put a premium on outdoor space even with condos. 

Our first time buyer client recently secured a contract at 4755 N Washtenaw #406 in Lincoln Square/ Ravenswood Gardens neighborhood. The well built newer construction elevator building offers contemporary units in a great, walkable neighborhood.  The contract is now in attorney review.  Let's take a look at Lincoln Square condo sales this year.

4755 N Washtenaw is located in the Ravenswood Gardens neighborhood of Lincoln Square and right across the street from popular Harvest Time grocery. So convenient!

269 Lincoln Square condos sold thus far this year (January 1st through October 31st). The median price of a condo is $325,000. 306 condo units sold over the same period of 2019 with a median price of about $319,000. 

Two beds, two baths units: Probably the most popular segment of condos is the two beds, two baths unit. 78 "two/twos" sold with a median price of $339,000. Our client jumped at the top floor 2 beds, 2 baths southeast corner unit with garage parking. The light and views are great!

Ravenswood Gardens and Ravenswood Manor staggering home sale prices

Many charming brick homes line West Wilson Avenue in Ravenswood Gardens and Ravenswood Manor. All photos Eric Rojas, Broker, kale Realty.
We have several clients aggressively looking for a house in the Lincoln Square area.  This includes Ravenswood Gardens and Ravenswood Manor (the Manor is technically in Albany Park but it is associated with Lincoln Square as well). A few houses have come on and sold really quickly in these neighborhoods this February.

Ravenswood Gradens is a popular Lincoln Square neighborhood west of Western Avenue and East of the river.
Single family home sales in Ravenswood Gardens
13 single family homes closed over 2017 in the Ravenswood Garden neighbor with a bonkers median sales price of $1,050,000.   11 homes sold over 2016 with a median price of $655,000.  Even in high flying 2007 before the financial crash six homes had closed for a median price of $700,000.  Seven homes sold for over one million dollars.  The highest prices sale was a full gut renovation at 2451 W Eastwood Ave, Chicago, IL 60625 for $1,115,000.

Six Ravenswood Gardens homes are currently under contract with three of those selling within a week from listing. 

Ravenswood Manor neighborhood of Albany Park
Ravenswood Manor single family home sales
20 single family homes sold over 2017 with a median price of about $650,000.  The Manor price appears much lower than their near neighbors to the east.  But one story charming brick homes can catch up to $875,000.  That's right... no second story.  In 2016, 28 homes sold with a median price of $575,000.  In 2007 before the crash 22 houses closed with a median price of $547,000.

There are pockets of older frame houses that are a little cheaper near the fringes of North Kedzie, West Montrose and West Lawrence that keep the median price down. One controversy brewing in the neighborhood is proliferation of new construction homes in this designated Historic District.
