Offered as an estate sale, the property has been lovingly maintained by the same family for many years and now awaits its next chapter. Each unit offers over 1,400 sq ft of living space with a spacious layout featuring 2 bedrooms, a tandem room, and 1 bath, along with generous living rooms, formal dining rooms, and eat-in kitchens with ample cabinet space. Sunlight fills the interiors, enhancing the building's classic vintage character. Important improvements include a five-year-old roof, ensuring peace of mind for years to come. A detached two-car garage adds convenience, and the backyard offers green space for outdoor enjoyment. The building is currently occupied by long-time tenants, providing stable income while you plan updates or reimagine the property. Adding to its appeal, this block has only four two-flats total, creating a warm and homey neighborhood feel that sets it apart from denser streets. Because this is an estate sale, the heirs have limited information about the property. This is a fantastic opportunity for investors, rehabbers, or owner-occupants to unlock tremendous potential in one of Skokie's most convenient and desirable locations. Close to schools, parks, shopping, dining, and transportation, this property offers both location and promise. With its solid construction, quiet setting, and untapped potential, this two-flat is a true investment gem ready to be transformed. A true Skokie investment gem!
