1317 W Byron Street

Phenominal painted victorian on a corner lot in Lake View, right off of Southport! Long-term owners have decided to sell and move on. This is THE single family home available in the Blaine school district at this price point, so if you don't want a condo, this is what you should be looking at! Property needs updating to suit the new owner's taste but the major things have been done; making it ready to turn over to the next purchaser. Roof replaced in 2020 Exterior painted in 2024 Interior painted in summer 2025 NEW Crown boiler installed in summer 2025 Beautiful hardwood floors in most rooms (not in kitchen) on the first floor. Wood floors on second floor, as well. Lots of natural light on both floors. Main bedroom has unfinished loft with skylights and a stained glass window. There are so many potential uses for the loft area and it has access to a dormered attic space for extra storage. Beautiful exposed beams and an exposed turret ceiling. Tons of custom, stained (not painted) woodwork throughout. Working wood-burning fireplace in the living room. Three bedrooms upstairs with a shared bath, as well as a partial bath on the first floor off of the kitchen. Front porch and a back porch with french doors from the kitchen. Completely original basement with unimproved basement. Laundry hook-ups but currently no washer/dryer present. Ultra-correct pocket doors between living and dining rooms which function beautifully. Close enough to Wrigley Field to walk to it but far enough away not to hear it. Walk to stores or take any of the public transportation options. Right around the corner from Dairy Queen. This is the perfect set-up, so come be part of the community!
