About This Home

As of April 2021

This pristine home, situated in the heart of Bucktown, offers over 1800 square feet of space distributed in a logical layout! Walk into the unit to find a wide open-concept living/dining/kitchen that is not typical or cookie-cutter. Fantastic open floor plan with a Chef's kitchen contains Italian custom cabinetry, Viking appliances and granite counters with a stately breakfast bar that can comfortably sit four guests. The living room is accented with a gorgeous stone-slab fireplace and a sizable private front terrace. Continue down the hallway to find your second bedroom and one full bathroom. The primary suite occupies the back of the home with steps leading up to this wing. The bedroom is large enough for a king bed plus some additional furnishings. Attached en-suite bathroom has double bowl sinks and a lovely shower/tub with Grohe fixtures and additional storage. There are pretty and clean dark oak hardwood floors throughout the home. Side-by-side washer/dryer are located in their own room. One garage parking spot is included with the price and owner is welcome to continue renting it to the neighbor (at $170/month), if attractive to your situation. This small and special building offers everything you need right outside your door: Damen Avenue restaurants, shopping, entertaining, night life, public transportation and very easy access to 90/94 just a distance north.
