Essex Realty Group Lists Mixed-Use Property in Chicago’s Old Town
Essex Realty Group is marketing 1628-1630 North Wells Street for sale, a mixed-use property ideally situated in Chicago’s Old Town neighborhood.
The offering features four residential apartments, ground-floor retail space, a two-unit coach house, and 12 outdoor parking spaces.
Essex Realty Group Principal Jim Darrow, Principal Jordan Gottlieb and Director Brian Keegan exclusively represent the seller in the offering.
“A value-add opportunity with 50 feet of frontage on the 1600 block of Wells Street in Old Town doesn’t come around often — this market has historically had very little supply and consistently strong demand,” said Darrow.
Located directly on Wells Street in the heart of Old Town, 1628-1630 North Wells Street benefits from its proximity to restaurants, bars, and entertainment venues. The property is located a few doors north of the Second City comedy club, across the street from a newly planned Whole Foods and just two blocks west of Lincoln Park, with North Avenue Beach a short walk through the park.
