About This Home

As of February 2021

Location, size, finishes... no sacrifices needed here. This adorably updated 2 bedroom 2 bathroom condo on one of Uptown's most charming lakeside blocks comes with en suite bathrooms and walk-in closets in both bedrooms, a deeded parking space, and an additional storage unit to boot. The kitchen has plenty of prep space on its beautiful quartz countertops and you have all the storage you need with appliance "garages" as well. The sun room in front has versatility to serve as a dining room, a bright and sunny home office nook, reading room, or a playspace for a child. The large back deck faces single family homes on Castlewood Terrace and so affords more privacy than your average Chicago deck. A mudroom has been added to the front entrance which also boasts a hung sliding door. The building is on a quiet street which provides the best of both worlds as far as location and convenience. Buttercup Park is on one end of the block and an even shorter walk to the east brings you to green space along the lake and the Margate Fieldhouse park facilities. The CTA, Lakeshore Drive, and express buses are all close by. Come take a look! (Note - one of the bathrooms is being remodeled - it will have finishes roughly similar to the pictured bathroom)
