About This Home

As of April 2025

Step into a hidden gem in Lincoln Square - this 3-bedroom condo is bigger on the inside than you ever imagined, and it could be yours for less than you're paying in rent!

The three generously sized bedrooms each have ample closet space. The third bedroom is tandem - ideal for a bright, sunny office or a cozy bedroom, depending on your needs. A rare, PRIVATE basement flex space awaits, larger than some entire condos. Along with the laundry, it offers endless possibilities for whatever you can envision. Included in the price is 1 parking space - a huge boon in this sought-after neighborhood. Just a short walk to full grocery store, Walgreens, Budlong Elementary and the spectacular River Park. Homes like this don't come up often in Lincoln Square, so don't wait - schedule your showing today and come see this one-of-a-kind opportunity in person!
