Property Description
100% CUSTOM-DESIGNED, NEWLY REMODELED! 5865 N Elston Ave is a multi-family condominium building located in the Jefferson Parkneighborhood on the northwest side of Chicago. This traditional, residential property is a reminder of mid-century Chicago, boasting a brick exterior masonry structure with a flat roofline, a perfectly manicured front lawn and easy street parking for guests just yards away. Fortunately, the rear of the property includes a paved outdoor lot with designated, assigned parking spaces for building residents. The roof and windows have been recently renovated as well. When entering one of the two secured entrances on either side of the building, you will find SMART LOCKS already installed on 2S for those of us who don't wish to scramble for our keys. Speaking of, the majority of this unit has been thoughtfully designed to make everything SMART-from the thermostat to the recessed lighting (with a "movie-theatre" dimmer feature.) Upon entering, you will be greeted with oak hardwood flooring throughout the living room, hallway, and bedrooms. The spacious front room includes a pass-through to the kitchen with a custom walnut eat-in counter providing a semi-open concept layout. The white and black kitchen, which includes a back entry, has been carefully crafted with sleekness in mind. Constructed by hand in the last few months, the unique countertop and backsplash showcases handmade, white shaker cabinets (soft-close), new crisp black hardware and appliances by Whirlpool and GE. The bedrooms receive plenty of light as well as layout flexibly. The bathroom features Carrera marble tiles and a dimmable, illuminated medicine cabinet with an internal outlet for charging devices. A Grohe faucet and pedestal sink are also present. A bidet attachment with warm and cold water control adds extra appeal. Need more storage? The basement includes two storage closets, an additional storage area plus the a personal GE washer and dryer. Schedule a tour today!
