Park Gables

About the Building

Situated in the West Rogers Park neighborhood of Chicago, 2468 W. Estes is a sought-after condo development that offers quality construction, roomy units and the modern amenities and services you need to live in comfort and style in the big city. Built in 1927, this structure houses 72 individual units and includes general vicinity parking to accommodate residents with vehicles. The various floorplans consist of mostly 1-bedroom units, with an average master bedroom size of 168 square feet.

Some of the building's smaller living rooms provide 280 square feet in which to put that plush wrap-around couch and the new flat screen TV, but the average size is 280 square feet for the main room. Either way, you'll have enough room to relax and watch your television shows on those quiet nights—or to host great get-togethers for the occasional impromptu dinner party. Just make sure no little four-legged friends sneak into the party because it would violate the building strict no-pets policy.

While the ability to host parties is often an essential factor in buying a home, there are other financial matters that should be taken into account. Such as, for example, what the price per sq. foot is for the units in the building and what the properties here are selling for these days.

At Park Gables, the average price per square foot is $115, with the minimum listing price for the building hovering right around the market price. While certain size units (meaning a two- versus a three-bedroom) sell better than others, a 1-bedroom residence recently sold for $115,000 in August of 2007. On top of the pricing data, it's nice to know the market stats for the particular site as well. Once again, we've got that right here for you. The maximum length of time a unit in this building stays on the market (which means the time between listing and closing) is 75 days. Of the units that are currently listed, 1-bedroom residences are typically on the market for an average of around 60 days.
