Description
Discover timeless elegance and modern updates in this spacious 2 bedroom, 2 bath residence offering approximately 1,600 sq ft of living space in a historic 1916 East Lakeview co-op. Nestled on the southwest corner of the building, this private home enjoys abundant natural light from south, west, and north-facing windows. Step inside through the welcoming foyer with a restored custom inlaid hardwood floor and continue into the living room anchored by a gas fireplace. A formal dining room boasts a barrel-vaulted ceiling, while a sunroom with six brand-new windows provides the perfect retreat for reading or entertaining. Original details-including crown moldings, woodwork, door hardware, and decorative ceiling medallions-have been meticulously restored, blending seamlessly with modern upgrades. Recent 2025 improvements include re-plastered and freshly painted walls and ceilings, updated electrical, new solid wood blinds and roller shades, and ELFA closet systems throughout. The home is complete with SpacePak central air conditioning and in-unit laundry. The chef's kitchen pairs original butler's pantry cabinetry with striking modern upgrades: custom stainless steel cabinets and counters, hand-hammered wall tiles, restaurant-style open shelving, and professional-grade appliances. Highlights include a Wolf 6-burner range with grill and griddle, double ovens, Sub-Zero glass-front refrigerator, KitchenAid dishwasher, and exterior-vented hood. The primary suite features an elegant marble-clad bath with mosaic and subway tile shower, Bertch vanity with marble top, LED medicine cabinet, ROHL fittings, and TOTO toilet. The updated hall bath offers a soaking tub, marble herringbone flooring, Riobel fixtures, and a stacked washer/dryer. A $28,000+ plumbing overhaul (2025) by licensed union plumbers ensures the home is future-proof, with modernized risers, new shower and sink configurations, washer/dryer drain system, and isolation valves for easy shutoff-an upgrade rarely found in vintage homes. Additional features include red oak hardwood floors throughout, built-in shelving in the guest bedroom, and a hard-wired speaker system. All designer lighting (Barbara Barry, Kate Spade, Alexa Hampton, Visual Comfort, and vintage crystal fixtures), drapery, rods, and custom rugs are included in the sale. The monthly assessment covers taxes, heat, water, gas, scavenger, on-site maintenance, annual exterior window washing, and professional management by Prairie Shores Management. Transferable parking is available one block away for $210/month. Located in the heart of East Lakeview, you'll be just blocks from Lake Michigan, the lakefront trail, Sydney Marovitz Golf Course, tennis courts, Whole Foods, Jewel-Osco, FFC gym, Planet Fitness, restaurants, cafes, nightlife, and Wrigley Field. This one-of-a-kind residence combines vintage craftsmanship with modern luxury-ideal for buyers seeking both history and convenience in one of Chicago's most vibrant neighborhoods. *Sorry, no pets allowed.*
