Rare, Updated Coach House in Ukrainian Village - A Peaceful Urban Retreat Tucked away from the street, 918 N. Winchester Ave. is a rarely available freestanding coach house offering privacy, quiet, and charm in the heart of Ukrainian Village. This beautifully updated 1890 Workman's Cottage blends historic character with thoughtful modern upgrades across approximately 2,400 sq ft of living space. Set off the street, this standalone home is remarkably quiet, providing a true urban oasis just steps from the best of East Village and Wicker Park-restaurants, shops, and public transit all within easy reach. This home is part of a professionally managed condo association with just four owners, ensuring well-maintained common areas and a strong sense of community. All four units in the association are owner-occupied. Inside, enjoy newly refinished hardwood floors on the first and second levels, a gas fireplace, and an updated kitchen with brand-new stainless steel appliances-refrigerator, oven/range, microwave, and dishwasher. The sunlit second floor features multiple skylights and a convenient second washer/dryer adjacent to the primary suite. The home boasts three full bathrooms, all with luxurious heated floors, including a spa-like lower-level bath with jacuzzi tub. The fully finished basement has its own entrance, new flooring, a mini bar, a full sized washer/dryer, and works perfectly as a guest suite, in-law apartment, or flexible living space. Storage is abundant, with plenty of closets throughout and additional dedicated storage space in the front building's basement. Relax or entertain in the shared courtyard patio, which has cozy seating, a fire pit, and beautifully maintained foliage in the summer months! Recent mechanical updates include a new HVAC system (2023) and new water heater (2023). Street parking is a breeze thanks to the neighborhood permitting, and the welcoming neighborhood community completes the package. This move-in-ready coach house offers a unique combination of historic charm, modern luxury, quiet privacy, and professional management in one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods.
