This immaculately maintained, first-floor vintage one-bedroom condo is a rare find...complete with DEEDED garage parking!

Both O'Hare and Midway airports are just 20-30 minutes away, making this location truly exceptional. Notes: Pet-friendly building (maximum of two pets). Assessments includes heat.
