About This Home

Terrific home in the heart of Lakeview at the Eddystone boasts classic details like beautiful wood herringbone floors, gorgeous moldings, gracious archways and spacious rooms with highly functional layout. Modern conveniences include 2-year-old kitchen & bath, plus in unit laundry and more than ample closet space. Step off elevator into updated private entry shared with only one neighbor. Then a gracious entry foyer with barrel ceiling welcomes you home and leads to a very large living room with plenty of dining space and is anchored by a decorative fireplace. Newly redone kitchen in white and light cream with an abundance of cabinets, classic white appliances, charcoal quartz counters and Strawberry Thief wall covering by Morris & Co from London, plus room for a small eating table. New bath features high end fixtures including Kohler Moxie wireless speaker showerhead, Kohler Karing toilet, Scarabeo sink with large marble walk-in shower and beautiful inlaid marble floor. Large primary bedroom is tucked away from living spaces and has big closet. Second bedroom offers enough space for both guests and a work from home office. Just steps from the lakefront and Belmont Harbor, the Eddystone is a classic pre-war building that is wonderfully maintained and very well managed. It has 24 hour door person, exercise room, additional storage spaces, laundry and bike rooms, engineer and a fantastic new roof deck with incredible lake and city views, plenty of well separated seating areas and gas grills. Assessments include most everything but modest electric bill each month. Nearby rental parking options, but no need for a car from this prime location. Express buses, great shopping and restaurants, nightlife and the lakefront all a very fast & easy walk away.
