Five single-families in Andersonville

5354 N Ashland Ave, Chicago

A recent New York Times Travel feature showcased Andersonville’s “village life in a big city,” singling out Las Manos Gallery, Scout 5221, Anteprima, In Fine Spirits, and Transistor as noteworthy destinations for shopping, eating, and entertainment.

The Clark Street corridor may have a lot to offer in the way of commerce, but what the neighborhood doesn’t have a lot of is single-family housing.
