A couple new single family home conversions caught my eye in the Waters school district of the Ravenswood Gardens neighborhood. The two-flat at 2418 W Wilson sold in early 2014 for $549,000 cash. The converted project was listed at $1,259,000 on the MLS earlier this year but is now cancelled. 2420 W Wilson was bought at the same time for $600,000 in early 2014. Both developer projects are listed for sale by Coldwell Banker according to the signs.
2416 W Wilson pictured below on the right (corner home on the alley) sold for $535,000 in early 2015 and now is under construction.

Approximately 28 single family homes closed in the Waters elementary school district in 2015. The median price of a house was $765,000 for the year.
The lowest sale was $425,000 for a two bedrooms "move-in ready" brick bungalow at 2529 W Cullom Ave, Chicago IL 60618. The highest sale in the district in 2015 was $1,237,500 in the Waters Elementary school district at 2510 W Cullom Ave, Chicago IL 60618. It's rare to have the lowest and highest sold homes in a school district on the same block (unless one is a tear down and one is new construction). The 2500 block of West Cullom is a desirable block on the Chicago River North Branch.
Past sales22 homes were recorded as sold in the MLS for Waters school district in 2014 with a median price about $675,000. In 2013, 22 homes were also recorded as sold but with median price of about $569,000. In 2012, about 19 homes closed with a median price about $630,000.
