About this property

Vintage charm with open concept floor plan, great for entertaining and families.

A Spacious 1700 sq.ft. condo in a stunning blonde brick/limestone 1928 building on a tree lined avenue. We are a fully licensed vacation rental #2087704 and 1 of only 73 licensed vacation condos in Chicago! We are celebrating our 21st year of hosting and our 15th year hosting our Chicago condos. Master suite with whirlpool tub and separate shower. A very quiet and secure 4 unit building with front lobby entrance.
The entrance boxwood garden which is enclosed by beautiful wrought iron fencing is a hint of what awaits you inside the exquisite vintage building. There is also a fenced rear garden which can be enjoyed from your back porch. We also have a 2/bed 2/bath listed on VRBO Free inter net & long distance phone.

The interior of the unit is grand & open. The living room, dining area & kitchen over look the tree tops through the seven large windows. The finishing touch in the entertainment area is the Italian marble fireplace.

The host, Mr. Ross went above and beyond making sure we knew where everything was in the VRBO and offered helpful suggestions for local restaurants. The property is in a nice location and the condo is comfortable, yet beautifully maintained. I would definitely stay here again.

Ross, the property manager, was a standout. He met us upon arrival, walked us through everything, and made us feel genuinely welcome. Anytime we had a question, his response time was excellent. That kind of attentiveness made a real difference.The apartment itself is beautiful, clean, and thoughtfully equipped. The bedrooms are spacious and comfortable. Water pressure was great, and everything functioned exactly as it should. A small backyard and a patio off the apartment were nice touches, giving guests the option to step outside for fresh air. We felt safe in the neighborhood throughout our stay. The nearest L stop is about a mile away — walkable, though worth factoring into your plans.A few things prospective guests should know going in. The apartment is on the second floor, which involves a flight of stairs. Garage parking is available, but the space is tight — too narrow for our large van. Both of these details are noted in the listing description, which I'll admit I didn't read as carefully as I should have. If you're traveling with guests who have mobility challenges or driving a larger vehicle, it's worth reviewing those details before you book.The other consideration is noise from the unit above. At times, particularly late at night, we could hear movement. For me, it wasn't an issue, but for some members of my family, it disrupted sleep. Sensitive sleepers may want to bring earplugs.

This is an absolutely beautiful and comfortable home. The location was ideal for us and street parking was available. This is one of the most user friendly home I have stayed in. The whole home is updated with lighting and flooring, wall treatments, etc., yet it has a very warm feeling from the vintage, classis decor. The beds were very comfortable, the giant couch in the front room is AMAZING! We had family over visiting a few times and never felt cramped. I highly recommend this home. The property manager lives on site and that brought us comfort.
