Located on a quiet, tree-lined block in the heart of The University of Chicago campus neighborhood, 5530 S Kimbark Avenue offers timeless architectural features paired with modern comfort. Set on a deep lot, the home showcases classic curb appeal with an inviting limestone facade, mature landscaping, and gracious proportions throughout. Inside, you'll find sun-drenched living spaces highlighted by generous ceiling heights, oversized windows, and beautifully preserved architectural details.

Recently fully renovated, it features a large bright recreation room and contemporary full bath, the perfect play area and/or additional overnight guest space. Outdoors, the landscaped yard offers a private oasis-ideal for relaxing, gardening, or hosting summer gatherings. The highly-desirable detached full 2-car garage with ample storage completes the property. Perfectly positioned near neighborhood shops, restaurants, parks, and public transportation, 5530 S.
