Welcome to The Barclay in historic Hyde Park-where each day begins with breathtaking lake views and radiant sunrises! Step off the elevator into a private foyer that leads directly to your home (only two residences per floor). This charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath vintage condo offers an inviting and spacious layout with unobstructed lake views throughout. The living room features gleaming hardwood floors, a cozy fireplace, elegant cove moulding, and the serene blue backdrop of Lake Michigan. From the foyer, the floor plan flows seamlessly into a full formal dining room and a generously sized kitchen with abundant counter space and new stainless-steel appliances. The primary bedroom includes a walk-in closet and private bath, while the second bedroom is equally spacious, enhanced with built-in bookshelves and another walk-in closet. Additional highlights include plentiful storage, a rare in-unit washer/dryer, and extra storage in the building's basement. One secured, gated parking space is included in the price. The Barclay is a classic elevator building with a grand lobby, 24/7 door staff, gated parking, and security cameras throughout. Living in Hyde Park means enjoying a vibrant neighborhood filled with parks, shops, restaurants, museums, the University of Chicago, and soon, the Obama Presidential Center.
