Nestled on a peaceful cul-de-sac within Old Town Square, this townhouse offers a serene oasis in the midst of city life. The tri-level layout provides ample space for both privacy and togetherness. Hardwood floors throughout the first and second floors create an elegant and cohesive atmosphere. The kitchen is a chef's dream with an oversized whole-slab granite island that doubles as a breakfast bar. It's complemented by additional built-ins for added storage. The open design seamlessly connects it to the living area, which features a new remote-controlled ventless fireplace and custom window treatments. The second floor is dedicated to the primary suite, complete with a bonus room and a large balcony overlooking the serene courtyard. The vaulted ceiling in the second bedroom adds character and charm. The updated white marble master bath is a spa-like retreat, featuring a double vanity and a separate walk-in shower. The lower level offers a family room, a spacious third bedroom, and another updated full bath. Additionally, you'll find a generously sized laundry room with jumbo-sized machines and extra storage. Enjoy breathtaking city views from the large composite rooftop deck, which has ample space for outdoor seating and a grill, making it perfect for entertaining. The attached one-car garage includes electric pulley bike storage, and there's an additional off-street parking space. The front of the townhouse faces a quiet tree-lined street, while the back opens to a gated patio, ideal for grilling. This meticulously maintained townhouse offers the best of both worlds - the tranquility of a cul-de-sac setting in the heart of the city's most coveted neighborhood. You'll enjoy easy access to Wells Street, renowned restaurants, shopping, schools, and public transportation. Lincoln Park, Michigan Avenue, and the beautiful North Avenue and Oak Street Beaches are all just a stone's throw away. Old Town's vibrant dining, shopping, and cultural scene are just a short stroll away. Schedule a viewing today to experience the epitome of Old Town living in this exclusive Old Town Square residence.
