01About this home

Discover this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo offering the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and accessibility. Located on the first floor with absolutely no stairs to navigate, this unit features a thoughtfully designed layout that separates the kitchen and dining areas from the spacious living room. Highlights of this home include - ultimate privacy as a dedicated hallway separates the living areas from the bedrooms. The master suite features its own private bathroom-a rare find in many condominiums-while the second bedroom has its own full bath, making it ideal for guests or a quiet home office. Another one is the cozy living feeling as you can relax in the inviting fireplace by the living room on chilly days. Large windows throughout fill the space with natural light, showcasing beautiful maple cabinets and white appliances in the kitchen. Convenience is also key in this unit as a stackable in-unit washer and dryer is located near the kitchen. Plus, additional storage is available in the basement, with an entrance conveniently located right outside your door. This gem is nestled in a lush, tree-lined residential neighborhood. You are just one block north of the vibrant Jarvis Square (cafes, restaurants, shops) and one block south of the Red Line. Minutes away from the lake, Loyola Park, dog parks, and bike paths. If driving is what pleases you, this unit comes with an assigned parking space. Perfectly situated between Loyola and Northwestern Universities. Investor and owner advantages include - lower property taxes and affordable assessments (heat is included in your monthly assessment) in an investor-friendly and pet-friendly building. Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a versatile, accessible "Gem" in the heart of the community whose diverse, lakefront vibe is an appeal to many.
