The sellers have just completed an extensive renovation of this dramatic top-floor condo. The brand-new kitchen features stainless steel appliances, white subway tile backsplash, new lighting, white wood cabinetry, and solid-surface countertops, including a breakfast bar on the peninsula that opens to the great room. There's even a window looking out over the front balcony to the leafy street. Five tall windows frame the bay of the great room, shaded by mature trees. The space boasts soaring ceilings and unique decorative trusses. At the east end, built-in bookcases and open shelves create a partial divider between the hallway and living area. Three generously sized bedrooms offer brand-new wood laminate flooring and spacious closets. The hardwood floors in the rest of the unit have just been refinished and gleam like new. The entire condo has been freshly repainted. Both bathrooms have been updated. One features a new double-sink wood vanity with new medicine cabinets and lighting, plus a luxurious marble-tiled, double-wide shower stall with a rain head and separate hand shower, along with a new designer toilet. The second bathroom includes a new vanity, medicine cabinet, toilet, lighting, and a large glass-block window in the shower/tub area. A full-size washer and dryer are located in the laundry closet. The unit also has its own HVAC system and hot water heater. All double-hung windows have been replaced with new glass and seals. The back bedroom opens onto a large wood deck with durable metal framing. A metal stairway leads to the secure parking lot in back-designed to outlast the typical wooden porches and stairs often seen behind Chicago buildings. The entire property is enclosed with wrought-iron fencing. The location is excellent. Enjoy views of the historic stone building across the street from your front balcony and bay windows. Next door, the Phoenix Farms Food Forest adds a green touch to the neighborhood. You're just two blocks from the University of Chicago and close to the YMCA, the new Obama Library, the Museum of Science and Industry, and the prestigious Mt. Carmel High School. Jackson Park is practically at your doorstep, with playing fields, lagoons, and beautiful gardens on the west side of Lake Shore Drive. Cross the Drive and you'll find 63rd Street Beach, known for its historic bathhouse, sandy beach, and weekly drum circle. Grab a sandwich at Reggie's on the Beach, recently featured in the Tribune. Nearby are the Jackson Park and South Shore golf courses. You can even take the bus or Metra with your clubs and get dropped off right at the entrance. Transit options are excellent. The 63rd Street Metra stop has an entrance on 64th Street, and express buses to the Loop and the south stop at 64th and Stony Island. One secure parking space is included in the price.
