Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

Rarely available, this 100% leased live/work and apartment building presents an investment opportunity in Chicago’s Ukrainian Village/Wicker Park area. The property features an impressive 5,000 SF bow-truss style space and includes two large second-floor apartments, supported by top-of-the-line amenities. Offered for sale with leases and rent roll available, it’s structured for investors seeking steadiness alongside functional flexibility.

Positioned in one of the fastest-growing neighborhoods for young professionals, the building benefits from its live/work configuration and the ability to serve both owner-users and tenants. Current offerings are tied to established operations, and buyers must sign an NDA to review financial documents.

For prospective buyers, the combination of a substantial ground-floor live/work footprint and two second-floor apartment units can broaden income streams while supporting a hands-on ownership strategy. Owner-users may find the layout well-suited for combining business use with residential living, while investors can underwrite based on the property’s fully leased status and provided lease documentation.

Key Highlights

  • 100% leased live/work property plus two second‑floor apartments
  • 7.2% cap rate investment opportunity (per provided listing remarks)
  • 5,000 SF bow‑truss style live/work space
