5030 N Ridgeway Avenue Chicago, IL 60625

This all-brick Chicago 2-flat offers two spacious units, currently rented, each featuring a front-facing living room with abundant windows, a separate dining room, an eat-in kitchen with pantry, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a den that may serve as a third bedroom. Both units and the basement have access to a front and side entrance through interior staircases. The property retains original character elements including woodwork, doors, built-ins, stained glass windows, hardwood floors, and a fireplace on the second floor only. The shared unfinished basement includes a coin-operated laundry area for residents, additional storage, and a newer boiler replaced in 2023. Outside, the backyard has a grassy area and a concrete parking pad for two vehicles. The home is being sold “AS IS” and is ready for updates and personalization.

The property is described as a classic Northwest side Albany Park location on a tree-lined street, with convenient access to CTA Brown Line and Blue Line service, the Irving Park Metra, and quick routes to I-90/94 and O’Hare Airport. Nearby amenities referenced in the materials include the North Branch Trail, Eugene Field Park and playground, Gompers Park, North Park University, and Northeastern Illinois University, along with schools, shopping, and dining.

For tenants or owners, the configuration supports straightforward income use with two separate, self-contained units, while also fitting an owner-occupied “house hack” approach where one unit can be lived in and the other can help offset expenses. For buyers planning to occupy, the materials note the property is zoned “A” and qualifies for the City of Chicago’s Homegrown Purchase Assistance Program for eligible first-time homebuyers, with assistance up to a stated maximum amount.
