Description

This beautiful brick 3-unit boutique condo building offers impressive curb appeal on the Prettiest tree-lined street bordering Evanston and Rogers Park, with fantastic transportation accessibility. You are welcomed into the unit to a foyer, with coat closet (California Closets) and room for that mail/key table. The sun streams through the south facing architecturally distinct windows into the massive living room, featuring original decorative fireplace mantle flanked with arched bookcases, ideal for your decorative accessories. Plenty of room for flexible furniture arrangements in this 24' x 18' living area. The Chef's kitchen features trendy white cabinets with brushed nickel hardware, pot rack, granite countertops, and stainless appliances including side-by-side with ice/water in the door. An additional added built-in hutch matches the kitchen cabinets with glass cabinet door uppers, subway tile backsplash and quartz counter top adds to the decor and provides additional storage and counter space. The bonus breakfast room provides additional space to add a desk, or even an in-unit washer/dryer. Enjoy dinner parties as well as your casual dining in the elegant formal dining room, with lovely bay windows, and plenty of room for your large table and hutch. Two king sized jack-n-jill bedrooms and bathrooms with queen sized third bedroom. New vanity and medicine cabinet. The entire unit was recently sanded and painted so it is ready for you! Lower level private owned washer/dryer and enormous common area storage. There is a nice yard too, if you have the urge to be an urban gardener! The result of all this is a home with all the character of yesteryear and the amenities of today. ALL OF THIS AND THE PRICE INCLUDES A GARAGE SPACE! The Howard St transportation hub provides access to the Red line, purple line and the Skokie Swift, as well as CTA and PACE Busses. A short stroll to some of my favorite eateries; Peckish Pig, The Fish Keg, Jamaican to Go (check out their new roof top deck) and all of the restaurants in Downtown Evanston. This is a delightful, 1600sf condo you will definitely want to see.
