Step into this beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom condo, completely rehabbed in 2024 to offer a blend of modern luxury and classic charm. From the moment you enter, you'll be greeted by the fresh glow of refinished hardwood floors, complemented by sleek, new luxury vinyl planking in the kitchen and bathroom. The kitchen was completely updated with black quartz countertops and brand-new stainless steel appliances, perfect for whipping up your favorite meals. A standout feature of this unit is the dining room, an unexpected perk in most 2-bedroom condos. Use it for elegant dinner parties, convert it into a cozy home office, or even transform it into a 3rd bedroom to fit your needs-it's that flexible. Central Air and new furnace installed in 2008. Furnace was just serviced October 2024. The perks continue with your very own assigned parking spot (#67), and ample basement storage, where you share the space with just one other owner. Plus, the additional basement area gives you creative freedom to personalize it. Location-wise, you're a stone's throw from Cermak Fresh Market for all your grocery needs, and just steps away from the Devon & Damen bus stop. A quick drive will land you in the vibrant neighborhoods of Edgewater and Andersonville, renowned for their boutique shops, trendy restaurants, and lively atmosphere. When summer rolls around, you'll love cooling off in the outdoor pool, a rare amenity that adds a resort-style touch to your everyday life, along with outdoor grills that can be used as if you have your own back yard.
