Description

Feel like you're in London or Paris -- despite unusually low HOAs -- when you return home to this elegant 1921 European gem steps from the Lake and Michigan Avenue in Chicago's coveted historic Gold Coast. Turnkey after a meticulous and all-inclusive gut rehab, this bright home offers pre-war charm along with state-of-the-art modern updates. Throughout you'll see new thermal-pane Pella windows with premium custom shades along with new solid oak hardwood floors and thick three-panel doors. Solid pre-war, plaster-cement construction ensures a peaceful refuge. The elegant living room features a handsome working fireplace and decorative mantle, a wall of dazzling French bay windows with glimpses of the Lake and Stone Street mansions, and the 9'6" ceilings found in every room. The oversized bay-windowed bedroom offers oak crown molding, a custom-built 9'x 3'x 9' solid oak wardrobe, striking oak ceiling fan, and a nook that can be used as a dedicated work (or relaxing) area. A full bathroom rehab incorporates a 5.5'x3' light-filled window along with spa-like, high-end Kohler shower, vanity, toilet and fixtures, and Robin mirrored inside-and-out medicine cabinet. Not to be outdone, the updated kitchen includes all new appliances and refreshed cabinets, countertops, backsplash and lighting. There is ample storage throughout including a 7'x3'x9' foyer walk-in, customized closet. Owned by out-of-towners who only spent a few days a year in it over the past seven years, the home is in pristine condition. Only three other units share your floor in this nine-story Building lovingly maintained by a long-time onsite husband-and-wife engineer team. Relax or entertain in the award-winning landscaped and outfitted courtyard. The lobby and party room recently have been beautifully redone. The Building's location also enjoys a Walker-Paradise score including biking and transit. There are available nearby garage options and permit street-parking, along with the No. 151 bus a few steps away and the L a five-minute stroll. Imagine walking out your lobby door this summer to a shimmering Lake and Oak Street Beach beckoning you along with Rush Street restaurants, Magnificent Mile shopping, cultural and sports attractions, top-tier medical facilities and the 1,200-acre Lincoln Park. Tour this one while it's still available -- it's the antithesis of cookie-cutter. (The unit's like-new furniture, custom made by Thos Moser of Maine, may be purchased separately.)

    "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 area is served by K-12 Ogden International School, which has a 1+ rating with CPS -- the highest rating possible."
