Description

Conveniently situated between Clark Street and bustling Broadway, yet tucked away on quiet Wellington Ave, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom unit will take your breath away. Completely gut renovated in 2015-2017, no expense was spared in creating the perfect balance between charming vintage and elevated contemporary. Upon entering this special home, you'll be struck by the beautiful hardwood floors and classic moulding throughout. Adjacent to the gracious entryway, step into the living room featuring a fireplace with stone surround and inviting bay windows overlooking tree-lined Wellington. Just down the hall, which boasts new built-ins for extra storage, the dreamy eat-in kitchen is the masterpiece of the home and is complete with high-end stainless steel appliances, designer lighting and custom shaker cabinetry that reaches the ceiling. Just off the kitchen, enjoy the private covered deck for your morning coffee or grilling on tranquil summer nights. Additionally, off the kitchen, you'll find a back entryway with coat storage, washer and dryer, complete with a vintage wood door original to the building that has been outfitted with a barn door track. The primary bedroom offers ample space and storage, as do the other 2 bedrooms in the unit. Both bathrooms are updated and beautifully designed. If you've been looking for the character of a vintage home with all the updates you swoon over in Architectural Digest, then this home isn't to be missed. The meticulous remodel was just a handful of years ago and included new hardwood floors, electrical, plumbing, windows, and fireplace updates. Mechanicals are even more recent, with the AC from 2019 and the furnace from 2020. 1 exterior parking spot and additional storage included. Fantastic East Lakeview location just a few blocks away from the lake, the Wellington L stop, grocery stores like Mariano's and Trader Joe's, and all the destination restaurants on Broadway including Crisp, Maison Marcel, and Wilde. Nettlehorst school district!
