About This Property

The South Shore neighborhood is positioned in a prime location on Chicago's lakefront, and its proximity to major institutions and attractions such as the University of Chicago, the Museum of Science and Industry, and Washington and Jackson Park make it an attractive place to live and relax. This property is a comfortable walk to the beginning of Chicago's iconic lakefront active activity trail (18.5-miles-long) that passes through and connects Chicago's four major lakefront parks along with various beaches and recreational amenities. Speaking of recreational amenities at the tip of the trail sets the historic South Shore Cultural Center, which houses the School of the Arts (youth and teen programs, community art classes, the Paul Robeson Theatre, a Fine Arts Gallery, two dance studios, music practice rooms, and a visual arts studio with a kiln). Also, take advantage of the public golf course, the beach's, outdoor/indoor eateries, gardens, and the nature center. Still have some time? Check out the Jackson Park 63rd Street Beach House and Promontory Point. The 63rd Street Beach House is an elegant Classical Revival style pavilion. South Park Commission in-house architects produced plans for the impressive building. Completed in 1919, the elegant exposed-aggregate concrete building takes full benefit of Lake Michigan with its open balconies and loggias (open-air galleries on the ground level) allowing for lovely lake views and comfortable breezes. Let's not forget about Promontory Point, (known locally as The Point) jutting into Lake Michigan. It is located in Chicago's Burnham Park. Though open-water swimming continues year-round for the brave and hearty, there are spring and fall swimming events, held on weekends during the summer and autumn for community swimmers. The Spring Swim Around the Rocks is held each year on the Sunday and the Fall Swim Around the Rocks is held each year on the Sunday. These events are open, and no registration is required. The South Shore neighborhood has tons offer from recreational activities to transportation, business, and education. Do yourself a favor and stop on by for a tour its nothing like seeing it for yourself.
