Description

*OPEN 6/5 CANCELLED; offer accepted.* Nestled in Chicago's ever-popular Wicker Park neighborhood, 1553 North Bell #2M is a one-of-a-kind 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom condo that is sure to steal your heart. This vintage dream home is the perfect juxtaposition of history & modernity. From the moment you enter the home, there is so much to take note of: golden western sunlight pouring in through bay windows, gleaming refinished hardwood floors, soaring ceilings offering nearly 10 feet of volume, & a breezy open concept floor plan. The spacious living room can accommodate a sofa, chairs, coffee table, media console, & more. You can entertain guests with cocktails in this room, then graduate to the adjacent dining space for a seated dinner. As for the kitchen, the finishes are top-of-the-line: chic quartz countertops, a massive island with a waterfall edge, solid walnut cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, Kohler faucet, & a glass tiled backsplash. There's even a window in the kitchen, so you can look out onto sweet Bell Avenue as you cook. Next, explore the bedroom, offering ample space for a bed of any size, nightstands, & even a Peloton or a WFH desk! The dual closets are equipped with organization, & the room is completed with a sleek ceiling fan. As for the bathroom, it mirrors many of the coveted finishes found in the kitchen. You'll discover high-end Grohe fixtures, a glass tiled tub/shower, & a generously sized vanity. Don't miss the bonus pantry hallway as you make your way out to the outdoor area. The deck is shared between just 2 unit owners, so you'll always have a quiet place for your morning coffee or evening nightcap. Last but not least, this unit is equipped with luxuries like in-unit laundry, central heat & air, & upgraded light fixtures (plus, plenty of recessed lighting). There is 1 additional storage cage (located in the basement) included in the price. As for the full-masonry building, it is an intimate, professionally-managed community of only 9 units with an address that cannot be beat. You are just around the corner from bustling North Avenue, & only a few minutes from neighborhood favorites like Etta, Small Chaval, Antique Taco, Violet Hour, The Robey, Olivia's Market, & too many more hot spots to name. Welcome to your dream home!
