Marketing description

Horvath & Tremblay is pleased to present the exclusive opportunity to purchase the multi-family investment property located at 1103 Simpson Street in Evanston, IL (the “Property”). The two-story brick building contains two (2) 3-Bedroom/1-Bathroom units with 2,400 square feet of gross living area in 2,800 square feet of gross area. The Property is situated upon a 0.07-acre parcel and features on-street parking spaces.

1103 Simpson Street is well-positioned within Evanston’s established residential neighborhood network, offering convenient access to the city’s vibrant downtown district, neighborhood retail corridors, and the broader North Shore region. The property benefits from strong connectivity via nearby Ridge Avenue, Green Bay Road, and Sheridan Road, while also providing quick access to Interstate 94 and U.S. Route 41, allowing for efficient travel throughout the Chicago metropolitan area.

Investment highlights

ACCESS & CONNECTIVITY

The Property is served by the CTA Purple Line, with Evanston stations at Central, Noyes, Foster, Davis, Dempster, Main, and South Boulevard, and the Purple Line provides express service during peak periods for trips to the Loop.

Metra’s Union Pacific North Line also runs through Evanston, with stations at Main, Davis, and Central, adding another rail option for commuters.

From a roadway perspective, the location benefits from easy regional connectivity to downtown Chicago and the broader North Shore market, with Evanston positioned directly north of the city and just over 14 miles from the Loop.

AREA AMENITIES & DEMAND DRIVERS

The Property is located just minutes from Northwestern University, one of the nation's leading research institutions and a major catalyst for housing demand in Evanston.

Key employers in the immediate area include Northwestern University, Northwestern Medicine, Endeavor Health, Evanston Hospital, Rotary International, and numerous technology, healthcare, and professional services firms located throughout Evanston and neighboring communities.

The Property's proximity to downtown Chicago further enhances its appeal, with convenient access via the CTA Purple Line and Metra Union Pacific North Line providing direct connections to the city's premier employment districts.

Residents can easily commute to major job centers including The Loop, River North, Fulton Market, the West Loop, and Chicago's central business district, home to globally recognized employers in finance, consulting, technology, healthcare, law, and corporate headquarters operations.

PROXIMITY TO NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY

The Property benefits from close proximity (0.8 miles) to Northwestern University, a world class private research university home to over 23,000 total students and over 4,000 faculty members, supporting stable employment and housing demand from students, faculty, and staff seeking nearby off-campus housing.

SEPARATELY METERED UTILITIES

Tenants are responsible for all utilities at the Property. This includes gas-powered heat & hot water, separately metered electricity, and city water & sewer, which they pay directly.
