About This Home

Nestled in a charming Chicago Greystone in the heart of East Lakeview, this absolutely adorable 1-bedroom plus office home perfectly blends classic character with thoughtful updates and modern conveniences throughout. The spacious and inviting living room welcomes you in with its cozy gas fireplace and a sweet built-in bench tucked into the bay window - perfect for morning coffee or curling up with a book. The living area flows seamlessly into the oversized eat-in kitchen, which boasts abundant white cabinetry, sleek stainless steel appliances, and plenty of space for a dining table and/or island. A door off the kitchen leads directly to your private patio - an ideal outdoor retreat for grilling, relaxing, or hosting friends. The generously sized bedroom easily accommodates a king bed and offers an organized closet for smart storage. The stylish and functional bathroom features a tub/shower with a subway tile surround and plentiful storage. Enjoy the rare luxury of a separate office complete with a built-in desk and solid wood cabinetry, perfect for working from home! Additional highlights include an in-unit laundry room with full-size side-by-side washer/dryer, gas forced heat & central air conditioning, and one gated, covered exterior parking space included in the price!. Brand-new water heater (February 2026) and furnace (January 2025), both with transferable warranties for added peace of mind. Self-managed building with a low monthly assessment of $115 that include parking, water, trash removal and exterior maintenance. Enjoy an unbeatable location tucked away on a quiet tree-lined street but just moments from Lake Michigan, Wrigley Field, and public transit. Endless shopping, dining, nightlife, and entertainment options including local favorites Intelligentsia Coffee, Chicago Diner, Laugh Factory, Chicken Hut, and Momo Factory - all just steps from your door!
