A low-rise, early 20th-century brick courtyard building in Chicago’s Ravenswood neighborhood, constructed in 1920 and rising three stories. The property contains a small collection of residential units—studios through multi-bedroom layouts—many with original high ceilings, hardwood floors, and period details paired with modern upgrades such as granite or quartz counters and stainless appliances. Units regularly feature open floor plans, formal dining areas, cathedral or 11–12 foot ceilings in penthouse homes, balconies or porches, in-unit laundry in many residences, and generous storage including basement bike/locker rooms and individual storage units; several listings note roof rights for select units. Common exterior spaces include a landscaped courtyard and grilling porch; on-site exterior parking spaces are provided and some associations include parking in the offering. The well-managed association (small, roughly under twenty units) has invested in recent capital improvements including a new roof and updated HVAC/hot water systems. Pet-friendly rules and flexible rental allowances are typical. Location emphasizes transit convenience—short walks to the Brown Line and Metra—and proximity to grocery, dining, parks, and neighborhood schools, creating a blend of vintage charm and practical urban livability.
