Matt Duffey and his girlfriend, Erika Hayes, were thrilled to purchase their first home in October 2008 — a third floor condominium on a quiet, leafy stretch of Leavitt Street in Wicker Park, just steps away from historical homes featured on neighborhood tours.

Duffey, a software engineer, and Hayes, a sales rep for Discovery Education, fell in love with the neighborhood after moving to Chicago from Milwaukee in 2007. They found their dream home at 1520 N. Leavitt, a double-wide model with unique features, lots of light and a modest front and back yard.
