Charming and spacious vintage home set within a beautifully maintained courtyard building. A short set of stairs leads to this inviting first-floor residence, where classic character and thoughtful updates come together seamlessly. The expansive south-facing living room is filled with natural light and showcases a gas fireplace with a stunning mantel, original hardwood floors, elegant archways, and timeless built-ins. The layout flows effortlessly into a generous, separate dining room perfect for everyday living and easy entertaining. The kitchen sits just off the dining space and is equipped with stainless steel appliances, including a double oven, gas range, and a large refrigerator. Both bedrooms offer excellent storage with ELFA-organized closets, and the home continues to impress with its sense of space, natural light from abundant windows, and a layout that lives comfortably without shared walls. Additional features include in-unit washer and dryer and window A/C units (all replaced within the last two years). The bathtub was refinished in February 2026. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street just 1.5 blocks from the Red Line and a short walk to the lakefront, beaches, and parks. Convenient rental parking is available nearby. A wonderful opportunity to enjoy vintage charm, generous space, and an unbeatable location.
