    Overview

    This frame two-unit duplex is offered for sale with two separate apartments, each providing two bedrooms and one bathroom. Each unit’s layout creates a practical foundation for either owner-occupancy or rental use. Additional space is available in a partially finished basement, which can support storage needs and secondary uses depending on how an operator or homeowner wants to configure the area.

    The property is located in Chicago, IL, in a MULTI zoning designation. The address is 5538 S Perry Avenue (60621). Public remarks note nearby access to green space and walking paths associated with Washington Park, along with convenience to University of Chicago access, shopping and dining, public transportation, and the Dan Ryan Expressway. The area is also described as experiencing renewed attention related to the Obama Presidential Center.

    For buyers seeking a straightforward residential income asset, the unit-by-unit configuration can support flexible living or leasing arrangements. The partially finished basement adds usable square footage beyond the primary living areas, and the overall setup may appeal to those looking to make thoughtful updates after purchase. The property’s duplex format is designed for managing two distinct living spaces under one ownership structure.
