LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Welcome to this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath vintage condo in the heart of Lakeview East, nestled on a quiet, tree-lined street just off Broadway. This charming 1920s residence blends classic Chicago character with thoughtful modern updates, featuring soaring 10' ceilings, hardwood floors throughout, and elegant frame and crown molding details. The spacious, separate living and dining areas are filled with natural light from large south-facing bay windows and anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The open kitchen offers granite countertops, abundant cabinetry, and a large island with room for bar stools, along with brand-new stainless steel appliances and refreshed finishes throughout. A long hallway leads to the secondary bedroom with French doors and generous closet space, perfect as a home office or guest bedroom with a queen bed. The oversized primary suite features double closets with custom organizers and an ensuite bathroom complete with marble finishes and a deep soaking tub. Recent owner updates include brand-new stainless steel appliances, fresh paint throughout, custom frame and crown molding, updated lighting and electrical fixtures, and new mechanicals, including the A/C and water heater.
