Hyde Park transaction sets price-per-unit benchmark
At $365,000 per unit, the 5130 S. Greenwood transaction represented the highest price per unit for vintage apartment buildings in the city’s Hyde Park neighborhood in the last five years, according to CoStar data. Located less than 1 mile north of the University of Chicago, 5130 S. Greenwood was built in 1911 and rehabbed in 2020. The unit mix includes two three-bedroom, two-bath apartments and six four-bedroom, two-bath plans. The building was 100% occupied at the time of sale.
The apartments range from 1,500 to 1,700 square feet and include sunrooms and semi-private back porches. All units have recently been gut-renovated and include stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, hardwood floors, individual HVAC and water heaters, and in-unit laundry. In addition, the property has seven total parking spots—five surface spaces and a two-car garage.
5130 S. Greenwood is located near several CTA bus routes, just over a half-mile from the Hyde Park Metra station and close to neighborhood restaurants, storefronts and parks.
