The owner of the single-family home at 16 S Seeley Ave isn’t letting a golden opportunity go to waste. After spending eight months off the market, the home returned to the MLS on Thursday, just in time for the first two games of the Stanley Cup Finals, going down just a few yards to the east at the United Center. The pitch couldn’t be simpler — buy here, sports fan, and you’ll never have to drive or train it to and from a Hawks or Bulls game ever again. (And look, North Siders — your own wall of ivy!)
The two-story, four-bedroom / 2.5-bath is listed at just $450,000, which makes it significantly cheaper than most condos found in the nearby West Loop but actually on the high end for single-families west of Ashland Avenue on the greater Near West Side. The Eisenhower Expressway is about three blocks to the south, and the hospitals of the Medical District are located just south of that.
Realtor Randy Ford doesn’t describe the home’s features beyond a mention of “very large rooms and very high ceilings,” but he does add that the building is “screaming to have a rooftop deck.” It may not be a fixer-upper, but judging from its photos, it’s clearly a cleaner-upper — put your best foot forward, people!
