About This Home
Charming Boutique Pre-War Building in the Heart of Lakeview! Step off the semi-private elevator (shared with just one neighbor) and into this elegant 1929 historic condo. A barrel-ceiling gallery entryway welcomes you with graceful arches and gleaming new hardwood floors. The living room features tall windows, a gas fireplace with custom millwork, and original moldings that have stood the test of time. A wide opening leads to the spacious dining room-perfect for hosting-with fresh paint and new light fixtures throughout. The butler's pantry offers extra cabinetry, counters, and a second sink for effortless entertaining. Beyond it, the modern kitchen is sleek and functional, appliances and clean design. Just off the kitchen, the third bedroom-originally the maid's quarters-offers privacy and its own half bath, ideal for a home office or guest suite. The serene primary suite sits at the opposite end with a fully rebuilt bathroom featuring new copper plumbing. The second bedroom is bright and versatile, and a walk-in cedar closet in the hall adds charm and storage. Recent updates include new hardwood floors throughout, professional paint, 2nd bath tube has been freshly glazed, and updated vanity mirrors in all three bathrooms (the vintage one lovingly preserved). In-unit laundry features a Miele high-efficiency ventless dryer, and central air ensures year-round comfort. HOA covers heat, water, internet, insurance, exterior maintenance, lawn care, scavenger, and snow removal. Heated garage parking available for ~$210/month. Just three blocks to the Lakefront, Lincoln Park Zoo, Diversey Driving Range, shopping, and dining. This is Lakeview living-classic bones, thoughtful updates, and a layout that works. Move-in ready.
