The vintage charm and central location of this spacious, light-filled, six-room condominium apartment is exceptional. Built in 1918, this second floor condominium features exquisite craftsmanship and ornate details that distinguish it from the crowd: many of the door and window frames are highlighted with vintage classical moldings and the elegant dining room features oak ceiling beams and a sitting area near the windows. A distinctive feature of this condo is the stunning hand-carved Art Nouveau styled wooden mantelpiece with original vintage tile. Oak hardwood flooring covers the majority of the floorplan which radiates out from the historic entry foyer. High ceilings and numerous large windows on both the eastern and western exposures ensures maximum light throughout the day. Both bedrooms feature built-in closets and vintage built-ins flank the main hallway. The kitchen is generously sized for Hyde Park and includes a clothes washer and dryer. Located on a beautiful tree-lined street, this condo is literally around the corner from Hyde Park's main shopping and dining district, major public transportation lines (Metra and express buses), Lake Shore Drive, and Lake Michigan's waterfront beaches and trails (including scenic Promontory Point). It is also within easy reach of some of Chicago's major cultural sites and institutions including the Museum of Science and Industry, the Dusable Museum of African American History, Frank Lloyd Wright's Robie House and The University of Chicago. This condo is part of a fifteen unit building with a solid, well-run association. A variety of parking options are available in the neighborhood.
