About this home

This sunny, top-floor 5-bedroom, 2-bath cooperative apartment has a fantastic location right on the edge of the University of Chicago campus. A thoughtful combination of two 3-bedroom units, this lovely apartment has undergone a recent complete renovation, including a stunning new open kitchen, with neighboring walk-in pantry, and two modern baths, redone with sleek contemporary tile and fixtures. The primary bedroom suite has a fully-outfitted walk-in closet as well as a private bath. Hardwood floors throughout. Two wood-burning fireplaces with limestone surrounds. There are tree-top views over the huge, beautiful communal yard and garden, with a shared outdoor barbecue and eating area and a storage building for bicycles. A wonderful combination of location, size, and charm.
