Residence on the Avenue Luxurious North Shore Vintage Condo
Year Purchased: 2003
Why the Owner Chose Rogers Park
The location is perfect. I wanted to be close to the lake, airport and Evanston. I am a fanatic for wonderful architechture and Rogers Park is known for the late 20's grand style. Only 10 miles from O'Hare Field. Midway Airport is 22 miles away. Just a 15 minute ride on the Union Pacific train to the heart of the city. This train stop is only 6 blocks from Residence on the Avenue. Ravinia Park, the out door concert venue can be reached in 20 minutes by this same train.The Red line will take you to Wrigley Field, Lincoln Park Zoo & to down town.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
I love the location. All that the city has to offer is so reachable. Lake Shore Drive is so close and can take me to the Magnificient mile (Michigan Avenue)Or head the other direction where LSD becomes Sheridan Road & view the beautiful mansions along the way to the Chicago Botanical Garden..........All alon the the lake front. I enjoy as well the peacefulness ofthe beautiful North Shore towns of Evanston, Willmette, Winnetka & Glencoe Having the lake front so close is also a benefit.
The famous Lake Shore Drive is famous for a reason.....you can see it all from here, beaches, tennis courts, jogging & bike paths. Not to mention our beautiful lake front position and the worlds most
For a wonderful drive head north for beautiful mansions.....head south and run in to Lake Shore Drive which will take you to the Magnificient mile.....Michigan Avenue
The Northwestern campus if minutes away. Residence on the Avenue is the perfect location to enjoy NW games, events or to visit your special student....Alumni special long term rates....come and enjoy the football or basketball season at Residence on the Avenue!
Loyoyal University is just minutes away. Alumni come for special events or sports. Come and stay while visiting your special student. Residence on the Avenue is the perfect place to stay for all events..

Lovely Garden Unit

We really enjoyed our stay in your Garden Unit on Jarvis. It met all of our needs perfectly and our family and friends who visited there were all very impressed. My wife and I both agreed that whoever chose the furnishings and art share our eclectic tastes for mixing the vintage with the modern. Hopefully we can stay there again on our next stay in Chicago. Our thanks as well to Ross who greeted us upon our arrival, gave us a tour of the property and its amenities and was always available to answer any questions we had about the apartment and the neighborhood.

This was our first time visiting Chicago, I chose this property because the photos look so nice, and I was not disappointed, the reality was an apartment that was very spacious, much bigger than in the photos, immaculately clean and a really good layout, Ross and Glenn the managers greeted us on our arrival and gave us a very warm welcome, they told us all we needed to know and made it clear that they would be happy to help in anyway they could, we never needed to contact them once and this was because we had everything we needed and we had clearly been given lots of info in both the folder that is in the apartment and also because they patiently answered any questions and gave us info on our arrival, this apartment was a real joy to come back to after our full days out in Chicago, we loved the underfloor heating in the bathrooms, the jacuzzi bath and spacious shower, the flat screen tv with built in dvd player in the living room, the large beds that were very comfy, an abundance of thick fluffy towels, the cooker and dishwasher worked amazingly well, the drinks feature on the American fridge was great for crushed ice and lovely cooling water to fill your bottles up for the day, there's a lovely garden out back for your use ,lovely to sit out with breakfast as there's a table and chairs for you, Chicago is the best City ever, so unique with an abundance of character, the architecture is amazing, there is so much to do, Willis tower with the glass rooms you step out into, the Navy pier, shopping outlets, six flags, museums, the beaches, magnificent mile with the water tower shopping mall, it was all so amazing, we didn't get to do everything and we stayed 11 nights, we are seriously thinking of going back next year and would have no hesitation in staying in this apartment again, it was nice feeling part of the community, the only gripe is some evenings was a bit of a struggle finding a parking space and we did get a ticket for having the car parked facing the wrong way, anyone from Europe would be oblivious to this law of having the car facing the way you are going to pull out, I suppose it makes sense when you think about it, but be aware so you don't get a ticket, that's the only gripe, everything else was perfect, thank you so much Glen, Ross and William the owner we had an unforgettable time, and hope to see you again in the very near future Jackie Mark and Damien

We brought our daughter into Chicago/Evanston area from college for the weekend and celebrated her birthday together in the lovely garden condo. I took her clothes shopping at Urban Outfitters in Evanston. The owner was very helpful and welcoming. There was even a beautiful bouquet of flowers in a vase to welcome us, a real treat on a cold, snowy day. The condo was very clean, well-maintained, and comfortable. We really appreciated the fact that the condo was comfortably warm but not dry, which was a relief after staying in a hotel near our daughter's college. We highly recommend the property and will pass on the information to our relatives and friends. We'll also keep it in mind for our future visits to Chicago.

This is a beautiful condo with modern amenities such as a fully equipped kitchen with elegant design. The bathrooms have heated floors! The whirlpool was a nice feature as well. It was a great place to relax and watch movies and order delivery. The place was very clean. The owner is helpful and accomodating. If you are looking for a place with modern conveniences and luxuries this is it.

We had a wonderful stay in the Garden Unit when we visited Chicago this past summer. What was so great was that we were able to park our vehicle and leave it at the condo while we visited downtown Chicago. We discovered that we were not that far from the train line and was able to maneauver our way from the condo to the bus then onto the train to go sightseeing downtown. After a busy day of sightseeing, it was so nice to get back to a beautiful place to stay and just relax. We enjoyed having the kitchen facilities as well as the spaciousness of the condo so that we were not bumping into each other (plus having our privacy!). Everything was very well kept up and clean and (Glen) the property manager was very helpful. We would highly recommend a stay at the Residence on the Avenue.

I just got engaged in this condo! This place is fabulous! Its close to everything by car and quiet. I love the hosts.. Glen, Ross and April. They decorated for halloween and had a ghost that made sound when you opened the gate! OMG, it scared me the first time! This place is immaculate ! The bathrooms were spotless and the showers had ALL WHITE TILES!! ( I am very picky about showers and baths) No signs of dirty. It was huge for 2 people and lots of counter space for cooking. I loved it!! THANK YOU ALL!!!

We enjoyed staying here so much. The location was great a 15 min walk to the "El" a market around the corner, resturants and plenty to do. A perfect place to say outside of the hustle and busle of the city, yet you are not more than a train ride from anywhere! The condo has plenty of space and is perfect for couples or famlies traveling.
