Property Description

Desirable 2 bedroom co-op situated in the heart of the University of Chicago campus. Why rent when you can buy for less? This surprisingly spacious unit gets serene natural light through the north and south facing original casement windows, providing unique views of the historic university and the co-op's private gardens. Vintage charm throughout with all hardwood floors that compliment the gorgeous custom wood-burning fireplace- co-op provides easy access to unlimited firewood! Lovely and quaint, the newly-painted galley kitchen welcomes you with butcher block counters matched to unique stainless steel and custom wood cabinetry. The living room flows into a sunny dining space, with large, easy to open windows that overlook a natural green space. You are guaranteed maximum storage with many closets and built-ins, plus two more assigned storage spaces in the building. Relax or entertain all year long within the wooded backyard paradise complete with shared barbeque and eating area, and a separate building for bike storage, even a real woodworking shop! Majority of the building is owner occupied, and subleases must be less than 2 years. No dogs allowed. Heat, water included in monthly HOA dues. Only pay for electric and cable/internet. Lake Michigan is less than a mile away, with bike trails and the legendary Promontory Point. You're on the UofC shuttle route, near public transportation, and close to a host of restaurants, theaters and cafes on 55th, Hyde Park Blvd, and 53rd.
