Description
Timeless vintage charm meets modern comfort in this expansive 2-bedroom +sunroom, 2-bath residence in the heart of East Lakeview. Positioned on a high first floor and filled with natural light, this beautiful home showcases walnut-stain hardwood floors, classic millwork, crown molding, high ceilings, and a stunning limestone surround gas-log fireplace that anchors the spacious living room. The versatile south-facing sunroom, framed by bay windows and three exposures, provides the perfect space for a home office, reading lounge, or additional dining area connected to both living and formal dining rooms. Elegant 4-panel French doors create a charming transition between the living room and formal dining room, ideal for everyday living and entertaining. Custom framed artwork panels add style to the dining room (currently used as an additional family room). The updated chef's kitchen features white cabinetry, quartz countertops with overhang for bar stools, stainless steel appliances, and abundant storage with wall of pantry cabinets. Both bathrooms were previously renovated, blending contemporary finishes with the home's historic character. The generous primary bedroom easily fits a king-size bed and offers a large organized walk-in closet with white marble bath. The second bedroom also has an en-suite attached full bathroom. Enjoy grilling and relaxing outside in the common brick-paved courtyard with table & chairs and separate sitting area where you can place your grill. Steam heat, hot water, and high speed internet are provided by the HOA. Three 2024 programmable, WiFi-connected, window AC units are in the home or if desired in future, buyer can add Central AC with condenser on the roof. The home has in-unit laundry hookups. Owner currently uses the laundry closet for more storage and has their owned, dedicated stackable washer/dryer and laundry sink just one flight down in the basement, along with their work-out equipment, common bike storage, and a very large private storage room. Positioned on a picturesque tree-lined street in one of Chicago's premier walkable neighborhoods, this exceptional home is just steps to Broadway grocery, shopping, restaurants, Nettelhorst Elementary, the lakefront, parks, golf driving range, tennis courts, and new dog park. Express buses, Wellington brown line train, and quick access to Lake Shore Drive. Everything East Lakeview has to offer is right outside your door.
