A brick two-flat built in 1920 in North Center right between the two expansive parks and the river is on the market. If all that greenery isn’t enough, this home has a grassy backyard with a pergola, too.

The home was converted into a four-bedroom, three-bathroom flat and comes with a new kitchen, open layout, rehabbed bathrooms, and a two-car garage. Some of the original woodwork remains which is visible in the flooring and beams.

The master bedroom has a plant-filled sunroom with sliding glass doors and a walk-in closet separated with a rustic barn door. Plus, radiant heated floors were installed on the first floor and in the master bathroom.

The house sits on a on quiet street just one block from the North Branch and Horner Park which has tennis courts, native plant gardens, a dog-friendly area, and a ceramics studio in the field house. A few blocks northeast is Welles Park with an indoor pool, playground, volleyball court, and horseshoe pits.

Sound like the neighborhood for you? 2471 West Pensacola Avenue is on the market for $799,900.

A staircase with a dark wood banister leads to the white living room with dark crown molding and a white painted brick fireplace.
In the entryway some of the original woodwork is restored.
A blue couch sits in the corner of the room in front of several windows looking out onto trees.
The living room features a decorative painted fireplace and bright windows.
A white and stainless steel galley-style kitchen with a short breakfast bar with black countertops. A glass window box sits over the kitchen sink.
A brand new chef’s kitchen.
A king bed sits in an alcove across from an open bookshelf. The bedroom door is open and shows a hallway table with two white lamps.
The master bedroom has a walk-in closet with a sliding barn door.
A wood fence encloses the backyard with green grass, a small white two-car garage, a brick-paved patio under a pergola and three blue chairs near a portable fire pit.
The fenced in backyard is a prized amenity in Chicago.
