About This Home

Big beautiful bright Ravenswood condo checks all the boxes! Updated 2bed/2bath with in unit w/d, central air, private balcony, and garage parking in professionally managed well-maintained boutique brick building in highly desirable location. First impression - a proper and spacious entry foyer with coat closet and mudroom space leads into an open floor plan with updated kitchen - plentiful 42 in cabinetry, newer appliances, great counter prep space, tasteful backsplash, and breakfast bar - all open to the dining and living areas, with gas fireplace and newer giant south facing sliding glass door windows. This home features a very large primary suite - big bedroom space (room for extra and/or large furniture, office nook), walk-in closet, linen closet, and a big updated primary bathroom with dual vanity, separate tub and shower, and lots of storage. On the OTHER side of the hall (split bedroom layout) is the guest bedroom and further down the hall, the guest bathroom with tub/shower combo. Rounding out this interior is a laundry/utility closet with full-size side-by-side washer dryer, storage shelving, and additional storage space. Central AC & heat, pretty hardwood flooring & new carpet, high ceilings, great natural light. AND a cute outdoor space for enjoying a warm night under twinkly lights. Located 2 blocks from the Montrose brown line and about 5 blocks to Ravenswood metra, walking distance to Graceland Cemetery and so many shops and restaurants.
