Condo · Built 1926 · Historic
Welcome home to this beautiful 2 bed, 1 bath condo in the heart of East Lakeview.

The large kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and direct access to your outdoor space perfect for grilling. Both bedrooms are generously sized with excellent closet space. The bathroom has been recently updated with white subway tile and a new vanity + medicine cabinet. Additional highlights include hardwood floors throughout, abundant storage, and in-unit washer and dryer. Monthly HOA includes heat, cooking gas, high-speed internet, cable, snow removal and professional landscaping. Ideally located just half a block from the lakefront underpass, providing immediate access to the Lakefront Trail, and moments from the best dining, shopping, and transit East Lakeview has to offer.
