Description
Live large, live green, and let your investment work for you. As the first of its kind ever built in North Lawndale, this two-unit marks the dawn of the next generation of housing in the neighborhood - a solar-powered building designed for an owner who wants the space and feel of a single-family home with the built-in cash flow of a rental unit. The Owner's Duplex-Up: Spanning two full floors, this 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath duplex-up lives like a detached single-family home. Soaring 9' ceilings and an open, light-filled layout set the stage for the elegant chef's kitchen with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, quartz countertops, and a sleek induction range, anchored by a massive 10' island and glass herringbone backsplash. The living room centers around a fireplace framed by built-in glass shelving, while crown molding with LED up-lighting adds a refined finishing touch throughout. Just off the living room, the dining area is made for hosting - a dry bar, wine cooler, and floating shelves make every gathering effortless. Custom built-in mudroom cabinetry keeps everyday life organized as you walk in the door. This is a home designed for how people actually live - spacious, efficient, and thoughtful. The Garden Investment Unit: A 2-bedroom, 1-bath garden unit offers immediate rental income potential, finished to the same high standard as the owner's unit - quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, and an induction range. Whether you're offsetting your mortgage or building a rental portfolio, this unit delivers flexibility from day one. Solar-Powered & All-Electric Efficiency: Every system in this home runs on electricity, powered by on-site solar - meaning lower utility costs, a smaller carbon footprint, and a home built for the future of energy. High-performance construction is evident throughout, with triple-pane windows, Broan ERVs for continuous fresh air, and staggered stud framing with continuous spray foam insulation for a tight, comfortable building envelope year-round. Outdoor Space & Parking: A completely fenced, extra-large lot offers privacy and outdoor space rarely available with new construction in the city. The future-proof, EV-ready 2-car garage means your electric vehicle charging needs are already covered. The North Lawndale Opportunity: Positioned in one of Chicago's most dynamic West Side neighborhoods, this property puts owners close to Douglas Park, growing neighborhood investment, and easy access to downtown - all while offering the rare combination of single-family living and rental income in one address. All Electric. All New. All Yours.
