01About this home

Welcome to this beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bath duplex in an intimate three-unit building located on one of Lakeview's most treasured tree-lined blocks. This home delivers the feel of a single-family residence paired with the convenience of condo living. The main level features a bright open-concept living and dining area with a gas fireplace and refinished oak hardwood floors (remodeled in 2019). The adjoining chef's kitchen was fully renovated in 2019, offering painted wood cabinetry, marble counters, stainless and paneled appliances, a large island, and a pantry closet perfect for everyday living and entertaining. A new French door to the rear deck was added in 2022 for seamless indoor/outdoor flow, while the unit's private, exclusive rooftop space offers an exceptional extension of living and entertaining space rarely found in condo living. Two bedrooms are located on the main floor, including a spacious primary suite with marble bath finishes and a separate shower. The second full bath on this level was fully remodeled in 2018. The lower level offers incredible flexibility with a large family room anchored by a second fireplace, heated stone floors, and lookout windows that fill the space with natural light. A third bedroom and a beautifully remodeled full bath (2017) make this level ideal for guests, work-from-home needs, or extended family. A dedicated laundry closet and abundant storage complete this floor. Significant improvements throughout include newer interior doors and trim, updated fixtures, mechanical replacements (furnace 2021, AC 2023, water heater 2018) and multiple newer appliances (dishwasher 2019, washer 2025, dryer 2022, refrigerator/freezer/stove/microwave all 2019). The building itself is well cared for, with tuckpointing and sealing completed in 2016 and new roof in 2019 . A private 4'x12' storage room and deeded garage parking (#P-105) are included. Located in the heart of Lakeview, you're just moments from Belmont Red Line (3 blocks), Addison Blue Line (5 blocks), Whole Foods, Target, Wrigley Field, parks on Roscoe, the lakefront, and countless restaurants and shops. This is the perfect blend of space, character, thoughtful updates, and unbeatable location.
