About this home

Step into the charming foyer of 1550 S Blue Island Ave, Unit 900, and be wowed by this sunny 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom corner unit with oversized windows, soaring ceilings, and sweeping Chicago views. The loft-style condo has two large, fully enclosed bedrooms with huge closets. Solid concrete construction creates a quiet, tranquil oasis amid the bustling city. The bright kitchen includes a breakfast bar, an island, a new Hansgrohe faucet, and a newer refrigerator and garbage disposal. Custom roller shades were added to the living room and kitchen, allowing you to create the perfect ambiance any time of day. The large bathroom includes a linen closet, a new showerhead, and a new fan. The unit is very energy-efficient. The condo includes a stackable in-unit washer and dryer (2025), ample and thoughtful closets, and an additional storage space in the building's basement, included in the price. This historical and architecturally significant building is in an unbeatable location! Walk to Pilsen's best bars, restaurants, coffee shops, Casa del Pueblo grocery store, shopping, and Thalia Hall. Quick access to the Loop and UIC campus via #60 bus. Just over a half mile to the 18th Street Pink Line stop and less than a mile from the Halsted Metra. For those who rely on a car, the condo is a short drive to expressways. Indoor garage parking is available for lease. Parking in an enclosed lot with secure building access is also available for rent on a monthly or yearly basis. The building is professionally managed and has a doorman on duty 7-nights a week. The HOA is pet-friendly, with no restrictions on dogs or cats. The $695/month HOA fee covers internet, heat, AC, water, and gas; only electricity is paid by the owner. Amenities: a first-floor party room with kitchenette, second-floor gym, and two third-floor dog runs (one fenced for off-leash use). Other spaces include a mail room with vending, and multiple bike storage rooms. No known upcoming specials. Hallways and unit doors were recently repainted.
