Vibrant downtown Hyde Park is the place to be! This condominium home, in this sought after location, is close to everything this special neighborhood offers. Walk to shopping, dining, the University of Chicago, multiple parks, the lakefront, the Museum of Science and Industry, the DuSable Museum, and the soon to be Obama Presidential Center. Steps to the University of Chicago bus lines as well as public buses and trains to downtown. As a full rehab is necessary, it provides you with the opportunity to make this the home you desire. The living room features a decorative fireplace with bookcase surround and opens onto a lovely sunroom offering additional space for multiple uses. There are three bedrooms, two full baths, a large separate formal dining room, a walk-in pantry and a great back deck for summer enjoyment. There is free laundry in the basement but laundry may be installed in-unit. The unit's radiators have all been serviced and the seller has a radiator service plan that can be transferred to the buyer. Acknowledging that the condo requires a rehab, it has been priced accordingly. This home is being sold "AS-IS".
