Steps from Rogers and Juneway beaches, this bright, extra-wide (25' interior), west-facing duplex down offers 4 bedrooms and 3 baths in a classic all brick and limestone boutique building on a tree-lined street. It works as a 3 bed, 2 bath main level plus a fully self-contained 1 bed, 1 bath suite below, with separate entrances for complete privacy. The main level has 9' ceilings, hardwood floors, and crown molding throughout. A gracious foyer opens to the living and dining area with exposed brick, a fireplace, built-in shelves, a Juliet balcony, and incredible natural light, ideal for entertaining. The eat-in kitchen has flat panel cabinets, butcher block counters, a gas cooktop with hood, a wall oven with built-in microwave above, and a walk-in pantry with laundry units. Both remodeled baths feature custom tile work, a floating vanity, and wall-hung toilets, with a frameless glass shower in one and a large soaking tub with rain shower in the other. The primary bedroom fits a king, has an organized closet, and overlooks the backyard. The lower level comes fully loaded with its own large family room, second full kitchen with island, bedroom, bathroom, and laundry, plus recessed lighting. Use it for guests, extended stays, a home office, or rental income: it is currently leased through 1 August 2027 at $2,100 a month to a responsible tenant, and the lease allows the new owner to terminate it upon sale, so you can move right in or keep the income. A private storage room and true 1-car garage parking (no shared space) are included, along with a fenced shared garden patio. Located in the Gale School District, with parks, the Red Line, and East Rogers Park and Evanston dining and shopping all within walking distance.
