About This Home

This oversized 3-piece, one-bedroom Co-Op combines vintage charm with modern conveniences, located just steps from Bryn Mawr's restaurants, shops, the Lakefront, and close to Andersonville and Lakewood Balmoral. The building, a beautifully maintained yellow brick structure with outstanding terracotta detailing, features a welcoming courtyard and is managed by an impeccably maintained association. The unit retains its original vintage layout, offering a large living room, a separate dining room adjacent to the kitchen, a built-in wall storage closet, and a foyer with a convenient coat closet. The space benefits from great natural light, which highlights the hardwood flooring throughout. The bathroom has been recently updated and tiled, adding a modern touch to this classic property. Co-op living is known for its economic advantages, and this unit's low HOA of $472 per month covers building maintenance, reserves, heat, water, sewer, trash, a storage locker, and property taxes, ensuring a hassle-free and cost-effective living experience. Additional amenities include laundry and bike storage in the basement. The property is situated on ultra-convenient Winthrop, offering immediate access to the Red Line, multiple bus lines, and is within walking distance to both Mariano's and Jewel. The area is rich in dining options, shopping, and entertainment. Easy rental parking is available within one block. This vintage property is being sold as-is, with financing available with 10% down.
