Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This 6,025-square-foot masonry mixed-use building contains five units, including two three-bedroom, two-bath apartments and three commercial spaces. A comprehensive renovation in 2017 rebuilt the property from the floor joists upward. Residential improvements include stainless steel kitchen appliances, hardwood floors, exposed brick details, and strong natural light. Further capital work addressed the coach house roof, parapet wall, siding, masonry, water heaters, windows, lighting, and entry access. The commercial units were built out under current ownership, with Vela Spa occupying one space on a long-term lease.

The property sits on 18th Street in Pilsen’s retail corridor, with access to Metra and CTA service. The surrounding area includes UIC, downtown Chicago, Cinespace Film Studios, and nearby restaurants, retailers, and entertainment venues. The building was originally constructed in 1885 and reports an 8.14% cap rate.
