Description
When you walk into this condo, your breath will be taken away by its sheer size (over 2000 sq ft). All of the windows were replaced last year, so you can really appreciate all four exposures and the wonderful sunlight pouring through them. The vast living room opens through an operable vintage pocket door into a bedroom/library, both with large windows facing the avenue & Kenwood Park to the north. All the rooms are well proportioned and bright. The big kitchen has a breakfast nook area & opens to the beamed ceiling dining room with 2 big east facing windows. The enclosed back porch leads to the enclosed back stairs. The association has a lovely back & side yard & basement storage. The location couldn't be better: on a quiet one-way street, across from a popular park & Shoesmith Elementary School (rated 1+), a short walk/roll to tennis courts, public library, express bus & METRA to the Loop, & the Whole Foods/Michaels/Marshalls. It's a short bus ride to the University of Chicago, but why not bike? It's got a 95 bike score & an 89 walk score. The great restaurants and shops on 53rd St. are an easy stroll away. The electrical service to the building has been upgraded. It is unusual to get three full baths. There is so much room for working and living. You will have plenty of financial room to make all the improvements you'd like. This is the most square footage available in South Kenwood for the price. It is elegant space that will respond brilliantly to a solid rehab.
