About This Home
This stunning, sunlit, spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with a library, art room, sun room and 3 wood-burning fireplaces is in an elegant co-op building at 56th St and University Ave across the street from the UChicago campus. The unusually large communal garden is delightful. The building is very close to the campus' main quadrangle, Regenstein Library and Ratner Gym as well as bookstores, restaurants, coffee shops, and elementary and high schools. This home is a combination of two units (1149 and 1151), presenting a graceful, pleasing space with an abundance of natural light. The hardwood floors are in excellent condition as is the original millwork. The unit must be owner occupied, and the association does not allow undergraduate occupants. Cats are allowed. The monthly assessment for the combined unit: $1431 (HOA) and $612.77 (property taxes). The building is carefully maintained and has a robust reserve fund. The monthly assessment includes $1431 tax for the combined unit (1149 and 1151) and building, and $612.77 in property tax for the home and garden.
