Description

Location is everything, and Woodlawn delivers. Known as the home of the prestigious University of Chicago, the neighborhood blends academic influence, architectural charm, and cultural significance. Just minutes away is the highly anticipated Obama Presidential Center, a global destination that continues to drive growth, infrastructure investment, and long-term value throughout the area. In the heart of one of Chicago's most talked-about neighborhoods sits a property rich with potential and promise. 6523 S. Ellis Avenue, a classic Woodlawn townhome, offers more than just square footage-it presents an opportunity to create, restore, and invest in a community defined by history, education, and forward momentum. This four-bedroom, 1.1-bath townhome features a thoughtfully laid-out interior with generously sized rooms that provide a strong foundation for transformation. Each bedroom offers ample space, ideal for reimagining modern layouts while preserving the character that makes townhome living so appealing. The lower level, expansive and versatile, opens the door to multiple possibilities-whether envisioned as an additional bedroom, a comfortable family room, or a flexible living space tailored to today's lifestyles. Outside, the home continues to impress with a spacious backyard, a valuable asset for entertaining, gardening, or creating a private outdoor retreat. Completing the property is a two-car garage, a sought-after feature that adds both convenience and value. The home is being sold in as-is condition, making it an ideal canvas for investors, developers, or homeowners with vision-those ready to bring new life to a solid structure in an appreciating neighborhood.
