An East Wilmette mansion once owned by convicted developer and political fundraiser, Tony Rezko, has just come on the market for a cool $3,587,900.
The home, located at 1250 Chestnut Ave, has about 8,596 square feet and sits on a large lot – 150 x 190. The home, which won an Historic Preservation Award, has 30 rooms, seven bedrooms, 9.3 bathrooms and a two-bedroom coachhouse.
Rezko held a political fundraiser at the home in 2003 for Obama’s senate campaign.
The 2008 taxes were $67,811.44. The mansion is being sold as is. Rezko purchased the home in 1999 for $1,900,000.
According to the Chicago Tribune, “Bank of America foreclosed on the mansion last year after Rezko defaulted on a mortgage worth more than. $5 million. At an auction in August, the bank itself wound up as the lone bidder, paying $2.836 million for the mansion.” For more information, read Rezko mansion.
