Property Description
Welcome to this cheery, light-filled, renovated studio at I.M. Pei's classic University Park Condominiums. This cozy, updated, move-in-ready property features a sunny open space and serene courtyard views! Step into the condo and see the updated kitchen showcasing quartz countertops, deep undermount sink, new faucet, ample storage and room for an eat-in table. The large, open studio space overlooks the quiet courtyard and is roomy enough to easily be partitioned for living and sleeping areas and the five floor-to-ceiling windows and luxury vinyl flooring throughout make the unit a retreat year-round. Two generous closets and the spacious, bright bathroom round out this condo. Rarely available garage space is included as well, and additional storage in lower level. This well-maintained building offers round-the-clock door staff, on-site management, multiple laundry rooms, a gym and an outdoor pool access (both with a small fee) and serene gardens. Fantastic location in Hyde Park - close to restaurants, coffee shops, entertainment, shopping, grocery and to the beautiful lakefront and multiple parks. Easy commuter access too - University of Chicago shuttle at door; close to bus, El and Metra for downtown Chicago; and minutes to Lake Shore Drive - even more convenient with your own garage parking spot! Own for less than your rent or purchase and rent out - this is an investor-friendly building! This is one to see - make your appointment today!
