About This Home
As of July 2025Enjoy the relaxed vibe of this updated vintage condo in East Hyde Park. You'll get an instant boost from the bright south-facing living room and sun room, beamed separate dining room, large kitchen, remodeled bathrooms and rich color palette. There's a remarkable amount of storage space thanks to a wall of built-in shelving in the dining room, a hallway closet and three sizeable storage lockers in the basement. During the warm weather, you can putter in the backyard or sip your morning coffee on the deck off the kitchen. No need for a car at this eminently walkable location (90 walk score). Shopping (55th St. Shopping Center), recreation (Burnham Park, lakefront paths, 57th St. beach) and transportation (#6, #55, #172 buses and Metra) can all be accessed within minutes.
