This beautifully updated vintage condo blends classic charm with modern updates, all in a great Edgewater location! Renovated in 2022, this bright 2-bedroom, 1-bath home keeps its timeless character while adding the comforts you're looking for today. Gorgeous white oak hardwood floors installed in 2022 run throughout the unit and add to the warm, vintage feel. The kitchen was updated in 2022 with new stainless steel appliances, butcher block countertops and a large pantry with built-in shelving-perfect for storage and organization. New south-facing windows installed in August 2025 bring in tons of natural light throughout the day. Both bedrooms are nicely sized, and the bathroom features clean, updated finishes that fit right in with the home's charm. This unit has one assigned storage space and the building has shared basement laundry, and a bike room. Owners are approved to install a mini-split A/C system if desired. All of this in a fantastic Edgewater location close to the lakefront, dining, shopping, public transportation, and neighborhood amenities. A wonderful opportunity to own a move-in-ready vintage home with modern updates in one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods.
