Description

Introducing 5352 S Paulina Street, a solid 4-bedroom, 2-bath brick single-family home located in Chicago's New City community. This property offers immediate livability with the opportunity to add significant value through updates and improvements, making it ideal for an owner-occupant or an investor seeking their next portfolio addition. The main level includes two bedrooms (one smaller and ideal for office or flex use), a living room with strong natural light, an eat-in kitchen, and a full bathroom. The home also features an enclosed but unheated rear porch for additional storage or future customization. Upstairs offers one full bedroom with a separate living room, creating additional functional or recreational space. The basement includes another bedroom and a full bathroom, providing even more flexibility for multi-generational living or extended guest accommodations. While some updates have been completed, the home still requires substantial renovation work, giving buyers the chance to build long-term equity or tailor the home to their own needs. The New City neighborhood continues to see improvements, including recently repaved streets and curbs that enhance curb appeal, walkability, and overall community value. The area is also gaining steady interest from developers due to ongoing revitalization and investment in nearby communities such as Back of the Yards, Englewood, and Gage Park.
