About this House

Independence Heights, minutes from the Heights with quick access to 610 and 45, and no HOA. Built in 2023 and upgraded well beyond its age. Real oak hardwoods, custom shutters, and an opened-up staircase give the main floor room to breathe, with built-in surround sound throughout. The kitchen runs on quartz counters, soft close shaker cabinetry, a gas range, walk-in pantry, and an island with seating. Upstairs, the primary suite holds a private balcony, soaking tub, separate shower, and double sinks. The upgrades continue where most buyers never look: a fully insulated crawl space wired with lighting and outlets. Outside, professional-grade turf covers the side and back yards, and a substantially widened concrete driveway adds the kind of off-street parking you rarely find this close to the loop.

    "A lot of people here let their dogs come into your yard and poop. It’s pretty bad. A lot of folks also do not keep their dogs locked in their property so if you are out walking expect yo run into other loose dogs. Finally many residents don’t use leashes when walking their pups "

    "do not move here! it's still going under gentrification which means there are still a lot of prostitutes and thieves the walk the streets at night my car gets broken into pretty regularly to the point where I don't even lock it anymore or keep valuables inside just to make it easier for someone to see there's no need to break my windows. if you're dumb enough to fall for the cheap rent that's your fault"
