WBBM-Ch. 2 news anchor Irika Sargent and her husband, Dorian Orr, on Friday sold their four-bedroom, greystone-style house in Lincoln Park for its $1.49 million asking price.
An attorney, Sargent, 42, has been with CBS 2 since 2015, when she joined the station from the CBS affiliate in Miami. Sargent currently anchors the weekday evening newscasts on Channel 2 at 5, 6 and 10 p.m.
In Lincoln Park, Sargent’s husband paid $1.21 million for the house in April 2019, and the couple wed six months later. Recently updated, the house has 3 1/2 bathrooms, two fireplaces, a 27-foot-wide interior, a two-story family room with a fireplace and a kitchen with state-of-the-art appliances, an island and a walk-in pantry. Upstairs are a second-floor laundry, a staircase to the roof and a primary bedroom suite with two sinks, two walk-in closets and a Juliet balcony.
The house also has an attached, 2.5-car garage with a built-in storage unit.
Sargent and Orr placed the home on the market in June.
Both Sargent and listing agent Maureen Burns did not respond to requests for comment on the listing.
The house had a $22,237 property tax bill in the 2020 tax year.
