US EditionPope Leo XIV’s boyhood home in Dolton was on the market until Thursday. What comes next for the house?
- PaweB Radzik bought the three-bedroom ranch-style house on East 141st Place in Dolton last year, formerly the boyhood home of Robert Prevost, now Pope Leo XIV.
- Radzik aimed to renovate the home he purchased for $66,000 and sell it for a profit after its association with the pope became widely known.
- He updated 80% of the house, including new flooring, cabinets, plumbing, electrical work, and kitchen, while the property featured two full bathrooms and a finished basement.
- Originally listed at $219,000 in January, Radzik reduced the price to $199,900 by February and took the house off the market recently while evaluating offers and future possibilities.
- The house’s connection to Pope Leo XIV has sparked local interest though it remains subject to ordinary property taxes, and its future role might enhance Dolton’s image.
