Description
This townhome in Lincoln Park is located on a super quiet, tree-lined street, yet close to so many restaurants and popular places. There is so much professionally organized storage and so many closets that it lives like a single-family home. Enjoy four full floors of living space, including a finished basement that could easily function as a third bedroom. This home has been meticulously and lovingly maintained and improved. A complete list of updates is attached to this listing-too many items to mention here. A quick summary: new roof, new skylight, new windows, new HVAC, custom Elfa closets, new appliances including chef's range, new disposal, new hot water heater, three recently remodeled bathrooms with custom vanities/lighting with eco-friendly toilets/heated toilet seats, two W/D for convenience (one in the basement and the other on the top floor), and designer tile throughout. There is a mini-split in the primary bedroom for an additional energy-efficient cooling option. Hardwood floors and luxury vinyl plank flooring throughout. The vinyl plank flooring on the second floor is not glued down and can be removed to expose the hardwood floor that matches the rest of the home beneath. Enjoy two private outdoor spaces, two custom-tiled fireplaces, and multiple living areas. The east and west exposures bring in tons of light. This small, 12-unit complex is very well maintained and quiet! The upkeep of this self-managed building is taken very seriously. The secure front entrance of the building leads into a professionally landscaped courtyard. The fire escapes and stairs have been completely rebuilt and beautifully executed. Enter on the main floor of this home to find the living room with a wood-burning fireplace clad in stone tile, an exposed brick wall going up a full two stories, and a 13' x 10' private patio conveniently adjacent to the living room via sliding glass doors. On the second floor, the open-concept dining room and kitchen lead to a huge 525 sf, 25' x 21' privately fenced deck with new composite decking! The kitchen is bright and well organized; there is plenty of storage between the white shaker cabinetry, custom upper glass-fronted cabinetry, and custom-made built-in buffet in the dining room. The kitchen has beautiful quartz and granite countertops throughout, an undermount stainless sink, glass tile backsplash, and top-of-the-line stainless steel appliances. There is also a full bath on the second floor. This townhome's stairway has motion-activated lights on each floor as well as a skylight with custom shade on the top floor. Follow the skylight all the way to the top floor and find two bedrooms, two hall closets, and one full bathroom. The light-filled master bedroom's Juliet balcony overlooks the private 525 sf outdoor deck below and features a wall-to-wall custom-organized closet with custom frosted-glass doors. The second bedroom has a professionally organized closet, second stackable LG W/D, and sliding glass doors. The W/D side of the closet can be converted back to a closet; the doors and custom shelving were saved. The lower level contains another living space, carpeted, with the second fireplace, marble stone tile, half bathroom, and laundry room containing the HVAC equipment and tons of organized storage. The lower level's third-bathroom shower has been converted to a closet, but the plumbing and tile remain behind the closet doors. It can be converted back to a full bathroom, and there is plenty of room to create a closet elsewhere on the lower level to make a third bedroom complete along with an ensuite full bathroom. Alley-accessed secure garage parking is included, and the assigned garage spot for this unit is an end space, giving it more storage space. A personal electrical outlet was added to the garage space for EV charging. This is a turn-key property in an A+ location. Oscar Mayer Elementary! In the heart of it all but on such a beautiful street in a quiet complex.
