About This Home
As of May 2026Love this sprawling 3 BR/ 2.1 BA corner condo centrally-located in desirable River Forest! The all-brick "Chatterton" elevator building is mid-century "ish" and offers ranch-like living with "lock-and-leave"conveniences! Enter into roomy, inviting foyer where new powder room is neatly tucked away. Oversized walk-in closet beckons its many uses: coats, storage etc. Three east-facing BRs and 2 full BAs are set apart from the living space. Smart circular flow leads to well-proportioned living and dining rooms and new kitchen. Beautiful hardwood floors to boot! This gem has a new kitchen ('20) including abundant cabinetry, stainless appliances and quartz countertops. Renovation has nice touches with soft-close drawers and a stainless fridge, range, micro, d/w, bev fridge, and a movable island. Primary bath updated ('20) with walk-in shower and new vanity, sink and built-in storage. Coveted attached, garage space included. New HVAC '20 & a/c 2025. This one is a cut above the rest! Be glad when you land in this special home!
