Charming Rowhome - Your Ideal Condo Alternative! Discover the perfect blend of charm and modern living in this delightful rowhome, designed to feel like a single-family home without the hefty price tag. Unlike typical townhomes, this residence boasts a traditional layout with inviting shared spaces on the main level, thoughtfully modified to suit contemporary lifestyles while preserving vintage character. This spacious home features 3 bedrooms, all luxurious en suites, and 3-1/2 bathrooms, complete with a convenient powder room on the main level. Enjoy the flexibility of a generous bonus room that can effortlessly serve as a gym, den, office, or guest bedroom. And a large lower level family room. An attached 1-1/2 car garage offers easy access directly from the kitchen, ensuring convenience in your daily routine. Step outside to explore three inviting outdoor spaces: a large deck off the kitchen, a massive terrace adjacent to the bonus room, and a charming front porch shared with your friendly neighbor. Recent updates enhance your living experience, including new air conditioning, laundry, stylish window treatments, exterior painting, a rebuilt front porch, and much more! Nestled on quiet tree-canopied Berenice, the location is just a short walk from the Brown Line and the vibrant neighborhoods of Roscoe Village, North Center, Lincoln Square, and the Southport Corridor. This home offers the perfect balance of comfort and urban convenience.
