You have probably viewed numerous apartments in Wicker Park and the truth is they all look pretty much alike. Stainless steel, granite, wall board, blah blah blah. Now prepare yourself for the apartment you have always dreamed of living in. This Queen Anne style Victorian manse was built in 1887 and is a registered architectural landmark. The rental apartment is the first floor and retains much of the original victorian splendor. A dramatic front entry way opens into a living and dining room with 13 foot ceilings and original stained glass and plaster relief. There is a wood burning fire place in the living room. Also note that there is no offensive duct work. Heating is with radiators and air conditioning is accomplished by a high velocity tubular system that ensures whisper quiet comfort. The master bedroom also has its own fireplace. In the basement there is a private laundry and storage room. A separate private garage is also included. When you look out the oversized windows you see trees and your own private garden with a deck...not a brick wall or neighbors. The kitchen has a seating area that overlooks the enclosed garden. This may be a rental apartment but it's truly like renting a magnificent home located one block from the blue line and all the attractions that Wicker Park has to offer. But make no mistake, this is a quiet residential area that has changed little over the past 100 years, Tenant is responsible for gas and electric.
