Description
Welcome to this bright, charming 2 bedroom 2 bathroom condo with great Lake and city views in the desirable Barclay building, set right on the Lake. This unit is quiet and move-in ready in a very well run building situated just minutes away from The University of Chicago, shopping, the Hyde Park Arts Center and Lake Shore Drive. This boutique pre-war building has only 2 homes per floor. Enjoy gorgeous morning sunrises, the canvas of sailboats during the season and east views of Lake Michigan! The spacious living room faces a decorative fireplace and opens to a formal foyer and huge dining room which easily fits a table for 10 - 12 with additional room for a buffet. The updated kitchen has stainless steel appliances along with lots of counter and cabinet space. The large primary bedroom easily fits a king sized bed, has a large walk in closet, and has an ensuite bathroom with subway tile. The 2nd bedroom is massive and makes a great combo guest room and office and also has it's own walk in closet and is close to the updated hallway bathroom. This lakefront home is just minutes away from the coming Obama Presidential Center, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Hyde Park retail shopping district, public transportation, University of Chicago and the renowned Laboratory School. HOA fee includes internet (with lightning fast CAT5e wiring), cable/TV, water and heat plus 24/7 doorman, on-site bike room, digital laundry and a mini storage cage. Owners only pay an electric bill. SO MUCH storage in the unit. While there is no laundry in the unit, there is a common laundry room on site. Reserves are over $730K, with no planned or levied Special Assessments. Building is getting a new boiler this year. Parking leased from Management at ONLY $80 DOLLARS PER MONTH!!! Totally separate parking reserve of $52K for parking lot projects. Plus you have access to the Lakefront path where you can jog, bike to downtown, enjoy an event at Soldier Field, head to Promontory Point or 57th Street Beach while relishing in the best skyline views in the city! A quick hop to Lake Shore Drive, Dan Ryan, Kenwood Metra Stop, and Express Buses! Just a short walk to museums and other notable local historic monuments and landmarks.
