About this home

An exceptional single-family home alternative in the heart of Lincoln Park, this beautifully renovated two-unit pairs a stunning three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath owner's duplex with a separate two-bedroom, one-bath first-floor residence-all within the sought-after Lincoln Elementary School District. Enjoy a spacious home with high-end finishes and outstanding outdoor space, plus the flexibility to generate rental income, accommodate extended family, nanny or college kids that come back to live with you, or explore a future single-family conversion. The owner's duplex up has been completely renovated in 2026 with sophisticated finishes and custom details throughout. New Marvin bay windows overlook tree-lined Willow Street, while the home's generous interior width creates an unusually spacious feel. New 5-inch white oak floors anchor the main living level. The stunning kitchen features custom oak cabinetry, Taj Mahal quartzite countertops, a marble backsplash, and premium Sub-Zero and Thermador appliances. A large island seats three, complemented by a spacious pantry closet, an adjoining dining area, and a dry bar with wine fridge. A charming powder room is also on this level. Upstairs, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and refinished white oak floors enhance three bedrooms, two full baths, and a versatile loft ideal for a home office or sitting area. The luxurious primary bath features limestone tile, Kohler Castia fixtures, a dual vanity, custom built-in cabinetry, and a skylight. Custom closet interiors throughout and conveniently located upper-level laundry add everyday functionality. A new wrought iron bridge connects the owner's residence to an impressive 20-by-18-foot garage rooftop deck with Trex decking and cedar privacy fencing-a private outdoor retreat for dining, entertaining, and relaxing. The separate first-floor residence offers two bedrooms, a full bath, its own kitchen, and comfortable living space. The kitchen and bath were previously renovated with classic finishes, while fresh paint, updated lighting, and newly refinished floors provide a welcoming finish. Use this residence for extended family, guests, or nanny accommodations, or help balance ownership costs with projected rental income of $4,000-$4,500 per month for 1st floor unit. Extensive improvements in 2026 include new Hardie board siding, Marvin windows throughout, five new Velux skylights, new roofs on both the building and garage, two new hot water heaters, and new landscaping and pavers in front and back. A two-car garage provides convenient parking, while a full unfinished basement offers great storage. 616 W. Willow offers a great alternative to a traditional single-family home or condo in a prime Lincoln Park location. Ask the listing agent for a complete list of improvements.
