Lake View Home in Blaine Boundaries Sells for $1 Million

Two homes on the North Side sold for just over $1 million, Chicago Magazine reports. Both houses, one in Lake View and the other in Lincoln Square, closed on the last day of April.

After just 30 showings in 12 days, the Lake View home at 1140 W. Patterson Ave. went under contract, Chicago Magazine reports. Previous owners of the home paid $960,000 in 2006, and sold it for $1,050,000, according to the Cook County Recorder of Deeds. 

Located within the Blaine Elementary School boundaries, the four-bedroom home had a completely renovated kitchen and rooftop deck, listing details show. 

The Lincoln Square home was on the market for much longer, changing price after 20 months, listing agent Deborah Hess told Chicago Magazine.

Though it sold for $1,075,000, the original owners paid almost half that when they bought it in 2001, according to the Cook County Recorder of Deeds.

The original purchase price in 2001 was $417,000, but since then, the owners rehabbed the building into a six-bedroom home with wine cellar, fireplaces and rooftop patios on the house and garage.
