About This Home

As of March 2022

Literally the cutest place in the West Loop! Own this sun filled condo for less than you pay in rent. This home has an adorable entry way that opens up into an extra wide living space with super high ceilings and a full wall of floor-to-ceiling windows. The functional kitchen features maple, cabinets, granite counters and stainless steel appliances. The primary bedroom is spacious and has walk-through closet with a jack-n-jill entry into the updated bathroom. Designer light fixtures throughout. The high-end washer and dryer is brand new from 2021. The HVAC was replaced only a few years ago in 2019. Garage parking included in the price. The low assessments include a 150 channel DirecTV cable package and 100 mbps internet and hot water. Excellent location walk to The Loop, GreekTown, Randolph and Fulton restaurants, Whole Foods/Marianos CTA and Oglive/Union Station. Pet friendly building, up to 2 dogs and/or 2 cats per unit, no weight limit. Seriously, this one won't last long on the market. Come by and see it soon!
