We've had several town house and condo sales in Lincoln Park this year including units on Sheffield, Hudson and Eugenie. It has certainly felt like activity is up. Here is a look at the actual numbers.
Lincoln Park Condo Sales (attached units) in 2012
470 condos (attached units including town houses) have sold from January 1st to June 30th this year. That's way up 49% from the 315 sold condos in the same period 2011. The median price for an attached unit so far in 2012 is $385,000 (a typical unit may be a middle floor two bedrooms, two baths 1999 build condo with garage parking). The median is about the same as the $380,000 for same period 2011. The stable prices for a couple years is a good sign.
The Highs:
By far, the highest priced attached unit was a penthouse co-op in 2430 N Lakeview Avenue, Unit 17PH that sold for $3,675,000 at the Adler...cash. The 5600 sq/ft unit covered two floors with unobstructed Lake Michigan views ) The over $8,000 monthly assessment (including property taxes of $41,000 a year) affords a full amenity lifestyle on the lake and 3 parking spaces.
The second highest was sale was at 1009 W Webster Avenue #2 for $1,365,000. The duplex penthouse is in a two unit new construction building using green materials like recycled old Chicago brick. Highly unique with great style, this home is in the heart of DePaul neighborhood and all it's shops, restaurants, parks and bars.
The Lows:
The lowest sale was a studio apartment at 607 Wrightwood #805 sold for $75,000 cash. This fantastic location is steps from the lakefront, easy downtown and has every amenity you need outside your door. Live the Lincoln Park lifestyle for peanuts. In 2012 69 units sold for $200,000 or under and only 5 of those had at least 2 bedrooms. In 2011, 49 units sold at or under $200,000.
