Timeless Vintage Charm Meets Spacious East Lakeview Living! Welcome to this spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo nestled in a beautiful 1912 pre-war building in the heart of East Lakeview. Offering approximately 1,600 square feet of living space, this home has been lovingly maintained by its longtime owner, preserving the original character, charm, and architectural details that make vintage Chicago homes so special. As you enter, notice the gorgeous hardwood floors that flow throughout the home, soaring 9.5 foot ceilings, and oversized windows that fill the space with natural light. The cozy yet spacious living room is anchored by a stunning original ornate wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm focal point and showcasing the craftsmanship of this vintage building. The oversized formal dining room offers plenty of space for hosting and leads into the long galley-style kitchen featuring granite countertops, white cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. A long, dramatic barrel-vaulted hallway runs through the home, adding architectural interest and showcasing the character and craftsmanship you simply don't find in newer construction. Both bedrooms are generously sized, a rare find in the city, and have excellent closet space. Two full bathrooms complete the living space, while additional storage and laundry are conveniently located within the building. East Lakeview continues to be one of Chicago's most desirable neighborhoods, offering the best of city living right outside your door.
