Rarely available duplex in an unbeatable Southport Corridor location, offering an exceptionally wide and open main level filled with natural light and offering a welcome departure from cookie cutter condos. The expansive living and dining space flows effortlessly into a beautifully updated kitchen with a large island, quartz counters, abundant cabinetry, and separate pantry, creating an ideal setting for both everyday living and entertaining. A large coat closet and private powder room add to the thoughtful functionality of the main level. The lower level features two spacious bedrooms, including a generous primary suite with a large walk in closet, additional built in storage, and a well appointed stone bath with double sinks, whirlpool tub, and separate shower. The second bedroom is also generously sized and offers excellent closet space. A dedicated laundry room with folding space and storage cabinets adds everyday convenience. Heated attached garage parking completes the home, along with easy access to an oversized shared rooftop deck with plenty of space for outdoor dining, entertaining and just relaxing in the sun. Unbeatable location just one block to the heart of Southport's shops and restaurants and one block to Whole Foods, with easy access to CTA trains and buses. Definitely one not to be missed!
