932 E 55th St

Homes like this don't come open very often in Hyde Park- and it is move-in ready! This beautiful brick townhome is across the street from the University of Chicago athletic fields, and it is a short walk to the U of C quad and hospitals. It is separated from busy 55th Street by a grassy berm full of established trees. The living & dining room on the first floor, stairs, and the 3 bedrooms on the 2nd floor have the original oak floors. All interior doors, trim and kitchen cabinets are solid oak. The southern exposure floods the living room with sunshine during the winter months and brightens the home all year long. The pass-through between the kitchen and dining room makes entertaining a breeze. The first floor includes a 1/2 bath, a coat closet, a hall closet, and a pantry. Upstairs, the spacious master bedroom has an ensuite full bath. The two other bedrooms share a full bath, and the hallway includes a skylight and a linen closet. The private patio is shaded and fenced in and is perfect for private dinners and barbeques. It includes a gas grill connected to the home, hot and cold water faucets, a lovely garden, and a gate to a dedicated parking space behind the home. Street parking is available for your second car or guests. The $100 per month HOA includes mowing, raking, and snow removal from the front and back common areas. The front portion of the basement is a finished recreation/family room with carpeting and many closets for storage. The back portion includes shelves and cabinets for more storage, an area for a workbench, and a laundry area with a washer, dryer, and utility sink. There are glass block windows in each area that have screened inset windows that can be opened for ventilation. The furnace includes a whole-house humidifier. There are steel security doors and interior doors at the front and back entries, along with Ring cameras and motion detector lighting over the back entrance.
