About This Property

With its 1,800 square feet, this huge three-bedroom, two-bathroom apartment has a double parlor and formal living room. The unit welcomes you into the second parlor. To the front of the building is the formal first parlor with a decorative fireplace. The formal parlor (living room) has an original, restored medallion on the ceiling. There are preserved and restored Victorian details throughout the apartment, including the ornate reproduction door hardware, hardwood floors and original trim throughout. The unit provides modern comforts and conveniences, while maintaining historical charm. The paint was selected to accurately reflect the colors available from the turn-of-the century. The first of two bathrooms has a traditional marble mosaic floor and subway tile surround. You'll enjoy this spacious and sunny apartment with its three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a large gourmet kitchen with a walk-in pantry. The eat-in kitchen has stainless steel appliances and granite countertops. For your convenience, there are in-unit full-size washer and dryer. Additionally, there are Ethernet and cable connections in all major rooms, updated electrical and a high-end energy efficient furnace and on-demand hot water heater. The original windows were meticulously refurbished, to maintain the historic character of the building, and then weatherized to give similar r-value to the best new windows. This apartment is gorgeous! To restore this exquisite brick two-flat, we removed layers of paint to restore the deep-red brick façade with its elegant graystone arches accentuating the beautiful wood windows. This gem was rich in metal work with its ornate security door and original metal cornice. We re-imagined the missing handrail with a custom-welded reproduction that mimics ornate and intricate Victorian aesthetics. This two-flat is conveniently located in walking distance to Garfield Park, Inspiration Kitchen, Golden Dome and Providence St Mel's School. Close to both CTA Blue line and Green line, as well as blocks from I-290/ Eisenhower Expressway, numerous bus routes and dedicated bike lanes. With over 20 percent of the East Garfield park managed by the Chicago park District, Garfield Park is the city's newest hip, green neighborhood with its parks, community gardens and, of course, the fantastic Garfield Park Conservatory.
