About This Home

Sought after a stunning total renovation of this 2BR/2BA corner unit with amazing View! Each room has a wall of windows overlooking the Lake, the Museum of Science and Industry, the Jackson Park Lagoons and now a direct view of the soon-to-open Barack Obama Center. Beautiful wood floor throughout the unit. The kitchen has wood custom cabinets with large drawers below and high end stainless steel appliances. The bathrooms are beautifully tiled. The large walk-in closet has been outfitted with closet organizers to optimize the space. Seller redesigned the kitchen and closets creatively. You can not imagine how smart and comfortable it is until you come to see it! 1700 East 56th St. Condominiums has been a favorite building since it opened in the late 1960's. It still retains it modernist mid-century feel. Great location! So close to both Lake Michigan and the University of Chicago makes it equally attractive to the academics walking or biking to campus and the runners to the Lakefront. #6 bus is at the door point. The Metra station is just west at Lake Park. They provide the most convenience for downtown shoppers. The 24hr door persons are friendly and professional. There is a garage right for one car in the heated garage INCLUDED in the price. The fitness room is right behind the doorman desk. The large laundry is on the 2nd floor. On the top floor is a party room with drop dead views and a catering kitchen available to be reserved by the residents. The sundeck on the top floor with panoramic views and seating for enjoying amazing Chicago skyline! There is a rental cap at 30% in this building. Current rental rate is 18%. The most difference between 1700 and other buildings in same age is the brand new double hung windows installed several years ago! The board did unmatchable job to make that happened! It can be the solely reason you feel in love with 1700 at the first sight! Don't wait to Move in to this wonderful condo, and have front row seats to all the excitement! Remember do not wait!
