Property Description

Seller to review all offers Tuesday May 5 at 5PM. This absolute gem of a home is on the market for the first time in over 30 years. Pristinely cared for and beautifully updated, it is move-in ready! The three bedroom, 2 bath layout is incredibly spacious. The beautiful sunny living room is enhanced with an original decorative fireplace flanked with bookcases and opens onto an all season sunroom. The walls of the 20 foot long hallway are the perfect place to display your art. The large separate dining room is perfect for large gatherings. The ensuite primary bedroom has been updated with double closets and an extra storage closet perfect for linens. The fully updated private bath has a stand-alone shower with both a handheld shower and a rain shower. There is built-in storage and an exhaust fan vented to the outside. The two secondary bedrooms are well sized. The additional bath has been nicely updated with exhaust fan to the outside. The kitchen has been updated in a timeless design, with copious extended cabinets, quartz composite countertops, stainless steel appliances which include an under counter microwave and a stylish exhaust hood over the stove which vents to the outside. The back deck offers a wonderful private outdoor space. This home has central air conditioning, hardwood floors, ceiling fans in each bedroom, and all of the windows have been replaced. Two storage rooms in the basement belong to this condo. Although laundry is allowed in the home, the owner chose to install their washer and dryer in the basement. This fabulous location is near everything the Hyde Park neighborhood has to offer. It is in the Ray School district and steps to the University of Chicago and it's Lab Schools, shopping, transportation, parks, the lake and Promontory Point, the Griffin Museum of Science and Industry and the Obama Presidential Center. Cats are welcome, but sorry no dogs. No investors - no rentals.

Explore Hyde Park

Hyde Park is home of the prestigious University of Chicago and the Museum of Science and Industry. This once prosperous hotel and lakeside resort area on Chicago's south side is quickly returning to its former glory with new residential development and scenic waterfront landscapes. The breathtaking sliver of shoreline along Lake Michigan is usually speckled with walkers, joggers, bikers and stroller-pushers, while the museum grounds teem with visitors from around the world. The rest of Hyde Park accommodates residents and students with a diverse mix of restaurants, bookshops, historic landmarks and several seasonal events, bike tours and neighborhood street festivals. Throughout Hyde Park are stunning vintage buildings and treasured architectural gems, some designed by famous architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Mies van der Rohe.
