Designed by renowned architect Paul Frederick Olsen, this elegant 1924 condo is perfectly positioned at the eastern edge of the Midway Plaisance, just steps from the future Obama Presidential Center. The surrounding area is undergoing a $4 million revitalization, including a universally accessible playground, restored historic landscaping, improved drainage, and refurbishment of the Cheney-Goode Memorial. Tucked away in a serene, landscaped courtyard, this generously sized apartment spans nearly 1,000 square feet and the full width of the building. It offers tranquil views of two picturesque gardens and a rare combination of vintage character and thoughtful updates. The separate living room opens to a charming Juliet balcony, while the spacious dining room-ideal as an office or family room-adds flexibility to the layout. Classic details like hardwood floors, picture-frame molding, and a vintage tiled bathroom add timeless appeal. Comfort is ensured year-round with mini-split air conditioning. Additional features include a private washer and dryer for the owner's exclusive use, secure bike storage, and a dedicated storage locker-all located in the basement of the building tier. A heated garage space in the neighboring Vista Homes garage is included and may also be rented. Unbeatable location just steps from the University of Chicago campus, Metra train, and CTA #6 and #15 bus routes. Monthly assessments cover heat, gas, Everywhere Wireless internet, and property taxes. Smoke-free building.
