**Corner unit with south and west-facing windows and over 1,400 square feet of living space in Oak Park's Lions Gate Condominiums: a one-level, three-bedroom, two-bathroom residence in a 1925 courtyard building at the corner of Washington Boulevard and Maple Avenue. Windows on two exposures bring in light throughout the day, framed by coved ceilings, original windows, and hardwood floors. Fresh paint, updated lighting fixtures, and custom blinds carry through every room. The kitchen features 42-inch cabinets, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, and a full suite of new stainless steel appliances - refrigerator, gas range, dishwasher, and microwave - with a breakfast bar for casual dining. Three generously sized bedrooms, each fitted with a custom California Closets system, include a bedroom with an en suite full bath; the hall bath offers a soaking tub alongside a separate shower. A newer in-unit washer and dryer, central air, and gas forced-air heat keep day-to-day living low-maintenance. A shared covered deck with new exterior stairs, a large private storage unit and dedicated bike storage round out the building's amenities. Located close to downtown Oak Park, 2.5 blocks from Mills Park, with close access to the Green Line, Metra, and Blue Line, plus Lake Street's restaurants and shops. I-290 is minutes away for drivers. Lions Gate Condominiums is a well-established Oak Park building with a track record of recent unit sales and renovations, offering vintage architectural character - coved ceilings, hardwood floors, original windows - paired with a fully updated kitchen and baths. A corner exposure, one-level layout, built-in storage throughout, and a low-maintenance monthly assessment make this Oak Park condominium a straightforward move for anyone trading square footage for simplicity without giving up character. You will be moved in just in time for the entrances and inside stairwells to be refeshed and repainted.
