Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Former Catholic parish campus on 4.6+/- acres with an all-brick stand-alone rectory built in 1970 and an attached church/school complex. The church includes approximately 8,000 SF of interior worship space (nearly 12,000 SF overall), with a day-chapel, reconciliation rooms, sacristies, gathering space, restrooms, and a raised all-oak custom altar area. Seating is supported by approximately 80 pews, and the main worship space features stained glass window accents. The church is heated by two gas forced air systems; the church chiller is not functional. Interior design improvements were completed in 2017.

The attached two-story school, built in 1965, shares a common vestibule/gathering space with the church and is arranged around a center concrete courtyard/play area. The first floor provides general and private office space, a teacher’s lounge, two large gathering rooms, accessible bathrooms, a full kitchen, classrooms, mechanical/electrical rooms, and storage. The second floor includes fifteen additional classrooms with restrooms, student lockers, and storage.

The rectory at the east end includes a formal entry/foyer, multiple offices, a pastor’s office, an updated high-end kitchen and dining room, restrooms, and access to an attached 3-car garage. The second floor provides three bedroom suites with full baths, with one suite offering private rooftop deck access. The walk-out lower level includes a large meeting/family room, an additional office/bedroom, and access to a private fenced patio/yard. The rectory utility room includes GFA/CA units, and a new 75-gallon water tank was installed in 2020. The property is served by one PIN: 24-06-204-026-000, with access onto the campus via South Ridgeland Avenue on the east or to the west at 88th Place/Nashville Avenue, and on-site parking for 170+ vehicles. Oak Lawn zoning maps indicate R-1 residential; future use would require buyer confirmation with the Village of Oak Lawn.
