Multiple offers received, HIGHEST & BEST called for by Monday 5pm 5/26! A MUST-SEE in Legendary Lake View! This beautiful 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom unit is nestled on a quiet block in the highly desired Southport neighborhood. The condo is located in an intimate, three-unit, owner-occupied building constructed of solid brick, limestone, and block (NOT split-faced block!). It features an open floor plan from the spacious dining area to the living room, which includes a wood-burning fireplace w/gas starter and access to a HUGE private balcony, an ideal spot for al fresco dining, grilling, relaxing or entertaining without leaving the comfort of your home! The kitchen was gorgeously remodeled in 2022 creating a space that's both stylish and functional. The generously-sized primary suite offers custom millwork, wide-plank wood floors, tons of closet space, and a spa-like ensuite with a double sink vanity, jetted soaking tub, and a separate walk-in shower with a frameless shower enclosure. There is also a large secondary bedroom (perfect for a home office/guest room), a full guest bathroom, and a convenient in-unit washer and dryer room with a sink. The property includes one assigned parking space (P-2) as well as a LARGE 12' x 6' storage room in the basement. This prime location offers convenient access to public transportation and outstanding shopping and dining options on the Southport Corridor and nearby Wrigley Field. Welcome Home!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
