Description

Welcome to 20 E Cedar Street, Unit 4D - a landmark Gold Coast address where the soul of a century-old building meets the comfort of a home that has been updated with genuine care and intention. Perched within a distinguished 1929 building, this 2 bedroom, 2.1 bath duplex spans 2,560 square feet across two gracious floors, delivering a sense of space, privacy, and architectural character that is increasingly rare in the Gold Coast at any price point. On the main level, Cathedral ceilings frame the living room, anchored by a gas fireplace and enhanced by a newly updated ceiling finished in 2026. South-facing courtyard and ivy wall views create a sense of greenery and calm that is truly surprising in the city's core. Solid oak hardwood floors run throughout, and the living room transitions seamlessly into a formal dining space graced by two custom statement pendant lights. The kitchen has been equipped without compromise. Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine fridge, Wolf range, and Miele oven, microwave, and dishwasher form the appliance suite. Radiant NuHeat heated floors warm the kitchen floor underfoot, and a custom built-in nook provides the kind of casual, lived-in corner that makes a kitchen feel like a true gathering place. A spacious family room/den rounds out the main level - ideal as a home office, media room, or private guest overflow - alongside an in-unit LG washer and dryer. Upstairs, the two bedrooms are each generously scaled and finished to the same exacting standard. The primary suite features custom built-in wardrobe storage and an ensuite bath finished in elegant stone, with radiant heated floors that are a quiet luxury unto themselves on Chicago mornings. The second bedroom is equally proportioned and served by a refined full bath with heated floors as well. An additional powder room on the main level ensures guests are accommodated graciously. Beyond the interiors, the unit has been invested in throughout: brand-new central air conditioning (2024), whole-home audio system, Ecobee thermostats, and NuHeat heated floor controls all reflect the thoughtful stewardship of a home that has been lived in and loved. 20 E Cedar is itself a destination. Originally constructed in 1929, it is 100% owner-occupied and carries $492,942 in reserves with no current or anticipated special assessments. Amenities include 24-hour door staff, a stunning 19th-floor common roof deck with city and lake views, a first-floor fitness room, and a tucked-away outdoor patio. The all-inclusive monthly assessment of $2,277 covers heat, water, gas, cable, internet, doorman service, exterior maintenance, lawn care, scavenger, and snow removal. Leased parking is available directly across the street at 33 E Cedar Street for approximately $300/month. Two pets per unit, 70 lb. maximum. Quiet, tree-lined Cedar Street places you moments from Oak Street Beach and the lakefront, steps from Lincoln Park, surrounded by the world-class dining, boutique shopping, and cultural richness that define Chicago's Gold Coast. For the buyer seeking extraordinary square footage, a building with a genuine century of history, and a home that has been elevated with care at every level, Unit 4D is a singular opportunity.

    "Dogs everywhere on leash. Plenty of grass. Plenty of exercise. Options to get out of the city easily."
  • Lori Roberts
    "It’s a lovely neighborhood and you see lots of moms and some dads pushing a stroller with their baby l/babies. It seems safe, but crime does come into the area sometimes. I’ve never seen that though."
  • Trulia User
    "There are plenty of people walking their dogs around this neighborhood so it will definitely be a common occurrence to see people walking their dogs"
  • Trulia User
    "Overall safe area. usually heavy traffic. Close to beaches, great for summertime. Close to best restaurants and grocery stores."
  • Trulia User
    "Great - wonderful - fantastic - superb - great - fantastic - amazing - excellent - running out of things to say"
  • Trulia User
    "This area is safe and friendly. I always feel comfortable going outside and walking my dog at anytime or walking home from the bars. There is a heavy police presence in the area so you will never be far from one. I am in walking distance of grocery stores and parks and coffee shops. "
  • Maralyn O.
    "If you live in the historic part the trees are wonderful lining the streets. And it’s quiet tucked away in some of these streets. High end shopping and dining in this area."
  • Dorothy A.
    "Transportation is easy and many services available. Walkable to many places. Major subway lines and buses, lakefront bike path, very walkable."
  • Dorothy A.
    "It is near the park and beach and safe. It has nice stores for shopping. It has good transportation to downtown museums."
  • Joseph G.
    "I find this neighborhood to be diversified and have blocks of different architecture, good maintenance. "
  • Renblank
    "11 minutes to get the loop via a cab for about 10 dollars. Red line is also very convenient and so it the bus."
  • Dan F.
    "Incredible proximity to the lake, mag mile, and city center. Amazing waking stress and close to the park. Arguably, the most desirable area to live in Chicago"
  • Madelynn J.
    "Sometimes crowded on the 151 bus, but they’re pretty frequent. I would leave some extra time. The red line also is super crowded at the clark/division in the morning so leave some extra time. Always better to have more time than not enough when trying to commute from this part of town"
  • Joseph G.
    "Convenient, but needs better scheduling during peak hrs. Also, bus status at each stop! Dangerous to be standing out! "
  • Trulia User
    "It is beautiful and clean and it has gorgeous views of the lake with little crime. All of the buildings are well kept. It feels like the upper east side of New York. "
  • KT
    "I travel a lot for work, so my commute is typically a cab to the airport. Cabs are readily available in the neighborhood. I prefer them to Uber / Lyft, which are also readily available in the neighborhood. Other than that, probably 95% or more of my trips are by foot."
  • W.S.
    "The festivals during the Summer months are lively, many are music based yet also have art related aspects to them as well."
  • K
    "I travel frequently for work. O’Hare is about a 25 minute cab ride Monday morning. Thursday night varies a lot but is usually 45-55 minutes. When I’m not traveling, my office is in the Loop, a pleasant 30 minute walk from my apartment."
  • Asya p.
    "Beautiful, well manicured lawns; abundance of fun places to grab food and drinks, lots of groceries, and shopping. Close to the lake. "

    "This neighborhood has the perfect mix of access to the beautiful Magnificent Mile, and a cozy feel with parks and beaches. It's an easy walk to public transportation and the Loop. During the winter, every tree in the whole neighborhood is covered in white lights. It's magical. This area is served by K-12 Ogden International School, which has a 1+ rating with CPS -- the highest rating possible."
