Description
There she is--the freshest, loveliest 1-bedroom condo in town, in a beautiful vintage building, in the heart of Oak Park. As you step into the foyer, you'll notice the aligned archways that draw you into the beautifully proportioned living room, with its cove ceiling and two sets of original French doors. One set of doors opens onto a Juliet balcony; the other set leads to the adjacent dining room. Imagine gathering with friends under the graceful barrel ceiling, a large bay window bringing in additional sunlight. Then--seldom seen in comparable units--the bonus space of a breakfast nook with seating for four in a charming oak banquette; nearby is a butler pantry with original built-in hutch. This space then leads into the designer kitchen. Here, the original white subway tile of the backsplash was removed, restored, then reset. Custom Amish cabinets complement the original uppers; the corbels below the open shelving were custom-styled to match the originals. Dark soapstone countertops create a striking contrast against the all-stainless appliances; and matching schoolhouse pendant lights grace the kitchen and breakfast nook. Heading back toward the bedroom and renovated bath, you will note a wealth of storage: a double-depth coat closet; built-in linen closet above a wide set of drawers; and a large, cedar storage closet. There is, additionally, a closet for the IN-UNIT LAUNDRY. The bedroom is spacious and bright, with south-facing windows. Outside, behind the building, you'll enjoy the seasons on the shared patio space, complete with a grill, fire pit, plentiful furnishings, planters, and herb gardens. The unit includes a floor-to-ceiling basement storage space as well as access to a bike room. And all this is right in the center of the Village, on a quiet side street, with restaurants, parks, trains, library--everything close at hand. Come see your lovely, new home!
