Merryman Playlot Park occupies a compact block in Chicago’s Irving Park neighborhood, bounded by Waveland Avenue and the Union Pacific Northwest Line tracks. The park features a fenced playground with swings, slides, and climbing equipment, plus a separate basketball court and a small picnic area with benches and tables. A paved perimeter path provides a flat, one-third-mile loop for walking or jogging. Mature maple and ash trees line the edges, offering shade in summer and a buffer from street traffic. The park sits within two blocks of the Irving Park Metra station and is directly adjacent to the 78-bus route on Addison Street, giving residents quick access to downtown and O’Hare. Nearby retail corridors on Irving Park Road supply grocery stores, coffee shops, and restaurants within a five-minute walk. The combination of on-site recreation, transit links, and everyday services supports daily routines for households with children or commuters.
Merryman Playlot Park currently has 8 single family homes for sale, 2 townhouses for sale, 31 condos for sale, and 1 lot for sale. There is 1 short sale. For anyone looking for a brand new home, there are 7 new construction homes for sale.
