Property Description
**Multiple offers-Best and Final due by Monday, May 19 at 3pm.** Lakeview top floor corner condo that checks all the boxes! Click on the virtual 3D tour. One parking space, in-unit washer and dryer, central AC and heat, large private deck and storage room included. Fantastic light and tree-top views make this classic two-bedroom condo in a 1916 vintage Lakeview courtyard building a must see. Well-maintained, designer-owned unit features high ceilings, oak flooring, central air conditioning and windows on 3 sides-including green views throughout the courtyard. The layout provides a great backdrop for contemporary or traditional style. The kitchen was renovated in April 2025, with new cabinets, honed granite countertops, new lighting, Hansgrohe faucet, Kohler sink, Samsung microwave. The Fisher Paykel refrigerator and Miele dishwasher were installed circa 2020-21. The Viking stove has new burner tubes. New Lutron switches and outlets. Utility closet with full size washer/ dryer and extra storage. The bathroom features Waterworks hardware including thermostatic shower controls, Toto toilet, floor-to-ceiling ceramic tile, a honed marble vanity and honed marble mosaic floor. Two large, bright bedrooms with south and east light include custom closets, new ceiling fans and recent Hunter Douglas shades. Original solid core doors are updated with vintage-spec ceramic handles from Rejuvenation. The windows were replaced in two phases by ClimateGuard (2010 and 2020). A private, spacious deck off of the kitchen accommodates a gas grill, dining table for 6+ people. The quiet courtyard is one of the best in Lakeview, with mature trees and a broad patio set behind an iron fence. An assigned large, locked storage room is provided for each unit on the ground floor. The extra-large, deeded parking space is accessed from the alley. The building features a dedicated bike storage room with racks, on the ground floor. Coin laundry in basement is also available. The Condo Association has a very healthy reserves balance and track record of steady maintenance, including annual landscaping and masonry upkeep. A new roof was installed circa 2016. Assessments include high-speed internet access, water, common insurance, maintenance of common spaces, snow removal and professional management. Just two blocks from Belmont Harbor and the lakefront path, the unit is steps from endless restaurants, bars and shopping on bustling Broadway, Halsted and Clark streets. Enjoy the convenient Farmer's Market, Whole Foods, Jewel and Mariano's - all a short walk away. This is a quality home in an A+ location with an unusually high standard of finish!
