This three bedroom condo is at the doorstep of everything this neighborhood has to offer. Walk to the University of Chicago, shopping, restaurants, the lake, multiple parks, the Museum of Science and Industry, the DuSable Museum, and the soon to be Obama Presidential Center. Transportation is a breeze from this home, the University bus lines are steps from your door as are public buses, the Metra and DuSable Lake Shore Drive. Acknowledging that the condo requires a total rehab, it has been priced accordingly. This home is being sold "As-Is".
