Beautifully refreshed condo offering a rare sense of privacy, openness, and natural light. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac at the end of the block, this home enjoys generous space between neighboring buildings on all sides. The result is exceptional natural light that fills the home throughout the day, creating an airy and inviting feel from every angle. The open-concept living, dining, and kitchen space with high ceilings is designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining, extending seamlessly to a front balcony-perfect for grilling. The spacious kitchen offers an abundance of cabinet storage and prep space, complete with granite countertops, newer stainless steel appliances, a hood, and a breakfast bar peninsula that naturally becomes the heart of the home. Recent upgrades provide peace of mind and modern convenience, including a brand-new dishwasher, stove, and modern washer/dryer installed just weeks ago, plus a refrigerator and microwave updated in 2023. Refinished hardwood floors with cherry wood inlay run throughout, while three newly installed windows add comfort and efficiency. A standout feature is the expansive rear deck, accessible directly from the hallway rather than only through the primary bedroom, making it a true extension of the living space and ideal for hosting guests. The spacious primary suite features a walk-in closet and a primary bath with a separate tub and shower. The second bedroom is uniquely bright and versatile enough to accommodate a double bed, nursery, office, or workout room. Additional highlights include one parking space and a dedicated storage closet in the common area. Perfectly positioned near public transportation, the Illinois Medical District, and Rush University Medical Center, this location offers easy access to downtown and major highways. A move-in-ready opportunity that blends space, updates, and location.
