Juniper Playlot Park sits at 3650 S. Wells Street on Chicago’s Near South Side, giving residents direct access to 1.3 acres of open space that includes a playground with swings and climbing structures, a full-size basketball court, and a small turf field used for soccer practice. A paved walking loop circles the park perimeter, providing a flat 0.3-mile route for daily exercise. Mature shade trees line the edges, offering cover during summer months, while adjacent sidewalks connect to the 31st Street bicycle lanes that run east toward Lake Shore Drive and the lakefront trail. The park is bordered by residential blocks and sits within two blocks of the Cermak-Chinatown Red Line station, allowing commuters a short walk to downtown. Street parking is metered on Wells, and a City of Chicago Divvy bike-share station is located at the park entrance. These features combine to create a compact, walkable outdoor area within an established urban neighborhood.
Juniper Playlot Park currently has 7 single family homes for sale, 2 townhouses for sale, 41 condos for sale, and 1 lot for sale. There is 1 short sale. For anyone looking for a brand new home, there are 16 new construction homes for sale.
