About This Home

As of August 2020

Your next home awaits in West Town! Located in the midst of the city's hottest neighborhoods, this two bed, two bath condo is a delightful year-round residence. The bright main living space faces south, is anchored by a wood-burning, gas starter fireplace, and is finished off by great details, such as attractive crown moulding.The kitchen has a large breakfast bar and generous counter space and cabinets. The spacious primary bedroom is ensuite with a large bathroom with oversized shower, separate bathtub and a dual vanity as well as two closets--one of which is walk-in. The second bedroom could easily be used as a home office--a very popular feature these days! In addition to its great interior spaces, this condo enjoys two of its own outdoor spaces (a front balcony with fantastic downtown views AND a large rear deck) as well as a large common roof with panoramic vistas of Chicago. A tandem exterior parking space large enough for two cars is included. West Town, Noble Square and the West Loop are a short walk away and full of amazing restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques. Ukrainian Village and Wicker Park are nearby as well! Be sure to notice that the Blue Line and public transport are just a few blocks away as well. This fantastic home won't last long
