Overview

Welcome to this impeccably updated, super rare two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath duplex-up in the heart of East Lakeview. Located on a charming, tree-lined street, this home offers the perfect blend of modern upgrades and timeless Chicago character. Step into the open-concept main level, where refinished hardwood floors (2020) and smart-controlled lighting set the tone for contemporary living. The wide floor plan provides ample space for both living and formal dining to fit comfortably, features a newly re-tiled fireplace and opens up directly to the first of two spacious private outdoor spaces. The thoughtfully renovated kitchen (2020) features sleek new appliances, quartz countertops, a stylish newly added island perfect for entertaining, and an elegant, custom-built bar (2020) with hidden "appliance garage" and extra storage that elevates the space. A sleek half bath rounds out this space. Upstairs, retreat to a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, it's own private outdoor space, and an attached five-fixture primary bath that underwent a full gut renovation in 2023-offering a luxurious, spa-like experience with high-end finishes, exceptional attention to detail, and even it's own vaulted ceiling with skylight and incredible ceiling height tile work. One additional bedroom and a full bath complete the upper floor of this rare layout condo. Additional upgrades include a brand new hot water heater (2023) and seamless integration of smart home features throughout the main floor. Enjoy the convenience of desirable attached garage parking, additional storage, and easy access to all the best that Lakeview has to offer-shopping, dining, entertainment, transportation, and the lakefront. This is the turnkey home you've been waiting for-nothing to do but move in and enjoy.
