About This Home

As of November 2022

Perfect and exceptionally well maintained townhome in a premier location! It's all here! A quiet oasis smack dab in the middle of the very desirable West Loop! Why live in a crowded condo building? Two bedrooms and two bathrooms plus an office/den/bonus room on the main level. The list of improvements is extensive. The primary bath was gutted and remodeled in 2017 featuring all Kohler fixtures, including the tub, shower, lav, and vanity. A beautiful new tile floor and granite counters were also installed. Both bedrooms have custom shelving in the closets. In 2018, all the windows were replaced and the kitchen received all new LG appliances. An LG front load washer and dryer was also installed at that time. New water heater in 2019. Furnace and front door replaced in 2020. Kitchen cabinets were refinished and quartz counter tops added in 2022 along with the installation of a whole house surge protector. Do you get the idea yet? Oh wait! The garage is already wired with a 240v outlet for your EV charger!! Speaking of the garage, this unit has the easiest access in the whole complex! Is there more? Why yes there is! The location can't be beat! A true hidden gem in the middle of everything! Two minute walk to Madison, 4 minutes to Randolph and 6 minutes to Fulton Market. Yet because of it's unique location, this home is extremely quiet. You are across the street from Skinner Park and Skinner Elementary School. One block away is one of two nearby dog parks. Whole Foods, Marianos and Walgreens are a 10 minute walk to Halsted. Blue line is 3 blocks as is entrance to 290 or to 90/94. Very low HOA's, well maintained common areas and responsive management. Very friendly little community!
