About this home

This beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment offers an exceptional blend of space, style, and location in the highly sought-after Wicker Park / Bucktown area. Spanning approximately 1,400 square feet, the home features soaring 10-foot ceilings and expansive windows that flood the space with natural light. The inviting living area is anchored by a charming gas-burning fireplace, while newly refinished hardwood floors and fresh paint throughout create a crisp, modern feel. The thoughtfully designed kitchen includes granite countertops, a spacious island, 42" maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a built-in wine rack, and a dedicated dining area perfect for entertaining. Step outside to your private patio-newly redone in 2026-ideal for summer grilling and gatherings. Additional highlights include a generous laundry room with ample storage and a newer washer and dryer (2019), recessed lighting added in 2017, and a recently updated guest bathroom. The primary suite offers a spa-like retreat with granite counters and elegant marble flooring. Residents also enjoy access to a large shared rooftop deck with stunning skyline views, complete with new Trex decking, a gas grill, and ample seating for hosting friends all season long. The gated property features secure, fenced parking and is equipped with modern conveniences including ADT wiring, a Nest thermostat and lock, and exterior Nest security cameras. Recent building improvements include tuckpointing in 2025 and refurbished fire escape stairs. Ideally located, just a short walk to either the Western or Damen CTA Blue Line stop, as well as the Bloomingdale Trail, plus an array of restaurants, shops, and nightlife, this home offers the perfect combination of comfort and urban convenience. Move-in ready and available June 1.
