The well-regarded Bloomsbury residential complex is made up of 14 luxury townhouses in an unbeatable central Hyde Park location. Completed in 1988, the design of these beautiful homes reflects an unusually thoughtful attention to the requirements of modern home life. Unit B is one of the largest of the group, comprising 3+ bedrooms and 3 and 1/2 baths on three levels of living space. The ground-level entrance includes a family room or 4th bedroom, a full bath, a charming outdoor walled garden, and a spacious garage (there's an additional parking spot in the home's private driveway). Upstairs, the main floor offers an expansive living room (with gas fireplace), a powder room, and an open kitchen/dining area with a balcony. The top floor offers all the necessities of the home's private space with 3 bedrooms, two baths, and a spacious laundry/storage room. A real bonus of the primary suite is a separate sitting room outside the bedroom, perfect for a home office. Hardwood floors throughout. Central A/C. The Bloomsbury townhomes are organized as a condominium association, so monthly fees cover roofs, exterior walls, and all common area maintenance. Steps to the lakefront as well as the shops and restaurants of 53rd St. Transportation is readily accessible with the University of Chicago bus line, Chicago Metra, and CTA nearby.
