About this House

Less than a block from the lake you'll find this charming 2-bedroom condo in a lovely vintage courtyard building. It's a high 1st floor unit with lots of windows. The spacious living and dining rooms look out onto serene tree-lined one-way Brompton. The bedrooms face west, overlooking the pretty landscaped courtyard, and get wonderful afternoon light. There are original hardwood floors in all rooms, a gorgeous wood-burning fireplace in the living room, crown moldings and other nice vintage details preserved throughout. The laundry room is just a few steps down from the back door in the kitchen. Every room has just been freshly painted in a tasteful light gray. There are good closets in the unit and an additional huge private storage closet just one floor down that is almost big enough to call a room! Plus there's a bike room. You are in the heart of Lake View with all it has to offer - one block from Broadway, two from Halsted. Note that the building does have parking spaces which they hold a lottery for once a year. Currently this unit does not have one but the area is full of garages that could be rented.
