About This Home

As of December 2020

Sunny and roomy 2-Bed Logan Square condo with the perfect mix of vintage details and modern convenience. Rehabbed in 2006, this top-floor unit in this well-maintained brick 3-unit with additional unit in rear coach-house is bright and nicely appointed. Stairs to unit are within the private space and open to an inviting landing leading to the main living area. Handsome red-oak floors throughout the majority of the unit with maple floors in the kitchen and tile in the bathroom. The unit features 9-foot tall ceilings and generous room sizes and keeps comfortable with a new Nest system. The living room features a new gas-fireplace and adjoins the separate dining room. The enormous kitchen features an island, granite counters and stainless steel appliances including new stove, dishwasher and garbage disposal. The kitchen is adjoined to a separate family room. There is in-unit laundry and an enclosed rear porch with storage off of the kitchen and an additional private storage unit in the basement. Since moving in, the seller has done a ton of work including Elfa closet systems, all new windows, water heater, new faucets, sinks, lighting, hardware, doorknobs, drawer pulls, bathroom and kitchen fixtures. The self-managed building is well maintained with healthy-reserves, gated entry and a rear yard. Perhaps the best feature of this special unit is its ideal location. This is a walker and cyclist's paradise with a short walk to the California blue line, Revolution Brewing, Chicago Diner, Palmer Square, 5 blocks to the 606, and all of the best shopping, dining and entertaining Logan Square has to offer.
