Wow! House: 19th-Century Home's Coach House Perfect For In-Laws Or For Rent

CHICAGO, IL — Built in 1896, this single-family home in Lincoln Square still keeps it's late 19th- /early 20th-century charm without losing the modern 20th-century touches and conveniences. The corner-lot home, which also comes with a one-bedroom coach house, sits at 2144 W. Wilson Ave., and it's listed at $1.075 million. It was listed for $1.099 million in May, but the price was dropped to $1.075 million in August.

The coach house is a nice addition to the main house. Along with the one bedroom, the coach house has a single bathroom, and it's ideal as a place for in-laws to stay, a converted studio or a rented apartment for a tennant. Like the main residence, the coach house sits on a professionally landscaped yard. (Get Patch real-time email alerts for the latest news for Lincoln Square and Chicago — or other neighborhoods.
