Property Description
Located in the heart of Southport Corridor, this is the largest 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout in the building, offering a rare mix of space, light, and true indoor-outdoor living. The layout is open and easy, with hardwood floors throughout and a kitchen designed for real life-stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, subway tile backsplash, and a center island that anchors the space for both everyday mornings and nights with friends. Both bedrooms are generously sized with custom-organized closets, while the bathroom features a double vanity, marble countertops, and a whirlpool tub. The standout is the oversized private deck-rare for the area and the kind of space you'll actually use, whether it's a quiet coffee in the morning or a full summer night with people over. In-unit laundry and dedicated basement storage complete the package. Step outside and you're immediately in it-Southport's restaurants, coffee spots, boutiques, Whole Foods, and the CTA all within a short walk. Move-in ready, with the space and location that's hard to find and easy to miss.
