About This Home

Rarely Available! Norwood Park boutique brick end-unit with 2 bedrooms, 1 and 1 half baths, 2 private balconies, and 1 parking space is included. Experience the best of city living with suburban charm-just steps from the Norwood Park Metra, yet surrounded by lush green space and historic homes on Circle Avenue, a street unlike any other in Chicago. Dating back to the late 1800s, this neighborhood was intentionally designed as a retreat from the city's rigid grid, with curving roads, tree-lined streets, and a park-like atmosphere that endures today. Inside this lovely home, you'll find a light-filled open layout with contemporary finishes, wide living spaces, and two outdoor balconies. The spacious living room is perfect for entertaining, featuring direct access to the first balcony and an eat-in kitchen with abundant solid wood cabinetry and stainless steel appliances. A split floor plan provides privacy, with two generously sized bedrooms. The primary suite boasts a walk-in closet and a second private balcony. Additional highlights include in-unit laundry, sound-attenuating windows, and a dedicated parking space right outside your door. With incredible accessibility-Metra, Blue Line, expressways, parks, and highly rated schools all nearby-this is a rare opportunity to own in one of Chicago's most picturesque and historic neighborhoods. Visit today and relax tomorrow!
