Artist's loft for $889K in Irving Park

It might not have cobblestone walks and white picket fences, but there's still a homey quality to this industrial-style space at 3907 N. Elston Ave. It's got all the soft edges of livability--sitting areas, private terrace, renovated kitchen--while still having the layout and design of a studio workspace. The heavy splashes of blue tile on the walls are a little goofy, but walls of exposed brick, the hardwood floors and plenty of "splash glass" will help you get your grind right as a musician, editor, producer, whatever in this space in Irving Park neighborhood. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, there's plenty of space for living and working. Become the artiste you were meant to be for $889,000.

Contact Tim Salm at Jameson Sothesby for more information, or visit Estately web site to see more of the property.
