Music-Inspired 2BR Garden Flat in Historic Uptown Near Legendary Music Venues
Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in Chicago’s Uptown / Sheridan Park, this beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath garden apartment blends historic character with a thoughtfully curated, music-inspired design.
Located in a 1915 historic Uptown brownstone designed by architect Andrew Sandegren—part of a City of Chicago Landmark District—this 1,200-square-foot space offers a private entrance, modern amenities, and a refined mid-century modern aesthetic. Original artwork and subtle musical references reflect the apartment’s close proximity to Chicago’s legendary live-music scene, with the Aragon Ballroom, Riviera Theatre, and the iconic Green Mill all within an easy walk. It’s also within walking distance to other beloved northside neighborhoods, including Andersonville, Lincoln Square, Asia on Argyle, Wrigley Field , and the lakefront.
The open living area features plush mid-century furnishings, an electric fireplace, and a 70" flat-panel LG TV—perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the city. Music-themed artwork and design details nod to Uptown’s creative legacy, including visual tributes to nearby venues and iconic artists.
The chef-ready kitchen opens seamlessly to the living space and is fully equipped with quartz waterfall countertops, two-tone cabinetry, dark stainless LG appliances, and a Technivorm Moccamaster coffee maker, with complimentary coffee provided.
Both bedrooms feature queen-size beds, layered lighting, ceiling fans by Minka Aire, smart plugs, and curated artwork. One bedroom includes a dedicated work nook with monitor and printer, making the space especially appealing for business travelers or longer stays.
The oversized bathroom includes marble mosaic tile, a Kohler rain shower, a fog-free LED mirror, and even Bluetooth audio via the Broan‑Nutone Sensonic exhaust fan—perfect for music or podcasts while getting ready.
In-unit laundry with full-size LG washer and dryer, central HVAC with Nest thermostat, and thoughtful extras throughout ensure a comfortable, low-friction stay.
Original artwork and subtle musical references reflect the apartment’s close proximity to Chicago’s legendary live-music scene, with the Aragon Ballroom, Riviera Theatre, and the iconic Green Mill all within an easy walk.
If driving or taking Uber/Lyft, travel time is typically 15–20 minutes from downtown and 35–45 minutes from O’Hare outside of rush hour. Free street parking is available. Via public transit, the apartment is an 8-minute walk from the CTA Red Line (Uptown Station) and about a 10-minute walk from the Metra Ravenswood stop, making it easy to reach downtown, Wrigleyville, Evanston, without a car.
Ideal for up to four guests, this apartment is designed for travelers who appreciate comfort, craftsmanship, and the opportunity to experience a more authentic side of Chicago—beyond the Loop. It’s a great home base for guests who want to explore the city’s North Side with ease while returning to a calm, residential setting

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mark Anthony Stephens
I’m an explorer at heart and draw energy from discovering new places—or seeing familiar ones from a fresh perspective. Travel, for me, is about curiosity, connection, and experiencing what is truly rich, diverse, and beautiful in the world. My most meaningful trips have been shaped by local insight, which gave me the confidence to venture beyond the obvious and discover something authentic. I host in my hometown to help guests experience the real Chicago in the same spirit.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood because it offers a rare balance: it’s vibrant and culturally rich, yet calm and residential. Within easy walking distance, you’ll find legendary music venues like the Aragon Ballroom, Carol’s Pub, and the Green Mill; a diverse and evolving food scene; and easy access to Wrigley Field, the lakefront, and neighborhood parks. At the same time, quiet, tree-lined streets make it easy to forget you’re in one of the world’s largest cities. That unique juxtaposition—energy and serenity in the same place—is why I love living here.
What makes this property unique
What makes this property unique is the combination of thoughtful design, music-inspired character, and location. Set in a landmark 1915 brownstone, the apartment has been carefully renovated with modern comforts while preserving a strong sense of place. Original artwork, mid-century modern furnishings, and subtle nods to Chicago’s music history create an elevated, immersive stay—paired with a private entrance and easy access to some of the city’s most vibrant North Side neighborhoods.
