Welcome to Thorndale Beach South, one of Edgewater's most sought-after full-service lakefront buildings. This expansive 2-bedroom, 2-bath home offers breathtaking views of Lake Michigan and the shoreline, best enjoyed from the oversized private balcony. One long balcony looking north and east to Lake Michigan which can be accessed through multiple different rooms of the condo. Unit layout is both functional and comfortable, featuring forced-air heat, central air, and an attached garage parking space included in the price. Residents enjoy 24-hour door staff, on-site management, a fitness center, outdoor pool, party room, bike storage, and common laundry, all within a well-maintained building with strong reserves. It is completely owner occupied building, pet-friendly community with no rentals allowed, offering a quieter, more residential feel. Ideally located just steps from the lakefront, beach, and Red Line, with easy access to Edgewater's vibrant dining and cafe scene. Neighborhood favorites include Little Bad Wolf for comfort food and cocktails, m.henry for brunch and daytime fare, and Regalia for refined Italian dining. Coffee lovers will appreciate nearby staples like Metropolis Coffee Company, The Coffee Studio, and Loaves & Witches, while casual evenings are well spent at neighborhood spots like Burke's Public House and Lady Gregory's Irish Bar & Restaurant. With the HOA covering most utilities and services, this home offers effortless lakefront living in one of Chicago's most coveted Edgewater addresses. The kitchen and both of the bathrooms are dated and next owner can put their fingerprint on the property by updating to their desired aesthetics. Tons of room for updates and rehab if coveted.
