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.

The New City neighborhood continues to see improvements, including recently repaved streets and curbs that enhance curb appeal, walkability, and overall community value.
