What's special
Private bedroom with a full private bathroom and a spacious walk-in closet available in a bright, well-maintained Hyde Park apartment, just a 10-minute walk from the University of Chicago campus. The apartment offers abundant natural light, hardwood floors, a spacious fully equipped kitchen, and the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer. A dedicated storage unit is also available.
This is an excellent opportunity for visiting researchers, postdoctoral scholars, faculty, or graduate students seeking a quiet and comfortable living environment. The owner lives out of state and is only in Chicago approximately one weekend per month, so the apartment is typically shared only with one other resident.
The apartment is within walking distance of the University of Chicago, restaurants, cafes, grocery stores, parks, public transportation, and the lakefront, making it easy to enjoy everything Hyde Park has to offer.
**Rent includes
* Water
* High-speed internet
* Fixed monthly utility fee
The current resident is a young woman. To ensure a comfortable shared living environment, prospective tenants will have the opportunity to meet her before signing a lease. A one-year lease is preferred, although shorter-term leases may be considered for visiting scholars, researchers, and other academic appointments.
