Welcome to 5950 N Paulina Unit 1E. This lovely vintage duplex offers 2 beds, 2 full baths, and loads of living space ready for you to add your personal touches. You enter the unit into a combined living-dining room spanned by large south-facing windows that bathe the room in sunlight. Classic hardwood floors run throughout the upper level. The galley kitchen features maple cabinets, classic granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a huge window. Off the kitchen is one of 2 outdoor spaces which can accommodate a grill, dining table, or seating for al fresco meals or your morning coffee. Down the hallway you will find a large coat closet, laundry closet, the first full bath with marble tile and deep soaking tub. The primary bedroom is toward the back and features a large walk-in closet and large west-facing windows overlooking a charming courtyard. Downstairs there is a large rec room with a gas fireplace and great space for lounging, play, or home office. The lower level features the 2nd bedroom and another full bath with marble tile, bathtub, and a large window letting in great light. Through the rear door is another outdoor space for additional lounging or entertaining. There is great storage in the unit but it also features an additional storage unit in the basement. Another feature of the building is a lovely courtyard with flower gardens, shared seating, and dining spaces for all to enjoy. The location couldn't be any more perfect. You are wonderfully situated with easy access to major streets whether you travel by bus, car, or bike. The new Peterson Metra station is a short 5 minute walk. Red line stations are about 20. Enjoy all Andersonville has to offer with great dining, shopping, street festivals, farmer's markets, and entertainment all within easy walking distance. Or if you prefer relaxing on the beach or biking along the lake you are only a few minutes away from all the sand, sun, and scenery.
