PRICE DROPPED $50K!!! HIDDEN GEM IN HORNER PARK! A 1910 Classic Reimagined with Scandinavian Style - East Irving Park- Less than .2 miles from Horner Park and the Chicago River, this home pairs the character of a 1910 build with clean, Swedish-inspired updates. Vintage hardwood floors, light-filled rooms, and a pared-back aesthetic throughout three finished levels. There are plenty of flex options with this 2,120-square foot space. The current residents used the 5 bedrooms as 3 bedrooms + 2 offices. The third floor's vaulted ceilings and master bedroom with en suite bathroom are a must-see. 7 major improvements added within the past two years: Brand new kitchen with all-new appliances, including two dishwashers. New high-efficiency AC/furnace installed in 2025. Seller reports a monthly gas bill averages under $175. Washer/dryer added to the second floor. New structural support beams. New drains, foundation seal, and basement water management system ensure this basement is as dry as it gets. New banisters and railings added to the second and third floors. New backyard. Removed the previous back deck and replaced with a new acacia wood patio and vegetable garden. Plenty of room available to add an additional back deck, garage, and any of your own personal touches. The main level features a living room, dining room, and open kitchen with island seating. A flexible room off the kitchen works as a 5th bedroom, office, den, or guest space. Second floor: 3 bedrooms and a full bath, plus 2nd-floor laundry for ease of access. The third-floor functions as a private bedroom retreat with vaulted ceilings, a sitting area, and an ensuite bath with soaking tub and separate shower. The backyard has a parking pad for 2 cars. Horner Park, the river and canoe launch, McFetridge ice rink, the Chicago Fire soccer pitch, and highly rated schools (Lane Tech, DePaul College Prep, Bateman Elementary) are all nearby in a neighborhood full of new construction and ongoing investment. Plenty of new, thoughtful updates in an unbeatable location - all in one home.
