5230 S University Ave. #H

This elegant townhome is located within walking distance to the University of Chicago, and the many shops and restaurants of Hyde Park. With four bedrooms and three full baths, the post-modern style home is the largest in University Circle. Entering off a quieter stretch of 53rd Street, one is immediately impressed by the abundance of natural light that filters throughout the open plan. On either side of the foyer are the living room and office; a dramatic arched stairway rises to the main living level. Here is a spacious dining area and family room, with a gas fireplace and built-in bookcases. The chef's kitchen features white wood cabinets, high-end stainless appliances, and quartz counters. A skylit stairway rises to the three bedrooms of the second level - two spacious bedrooms share a bath and the Primary Suite has an abundance of closets, new bath with two vanities and an office with a semi-circular balcony. The current owners have made many improvements to all aspects of the home: two new full baths, new windows on the facade and other locations, new crown molding and baseboards, refinished floors, new hot water heater and furnace, Nest system, recessed lighting, and window shades. The association has replaced the roof. With hardwood floors throughout, this well-maintained home offers a private yard for enjoyment on warm summer days, and an attached 2-car garage for inclement ones. A beautiful home, offered at an attractive price.
