Located along the iconic South Michigan Avenue corridor in Chicago, this single-floor residence offers a thoughtfully designed layout with contemporary finishes throughout. The living area is a standout, anchored by a wide bank of floor-to-ceiling windows that flood the room with natural light and frame sweeping views of Grant Park and Lake Michigan beyond — a rare urban backdrop that brings the outdoors in. Dark hardwood-style flooring runs throughout, providing a warm contrast to the crisp white walls and light-toned furnishings. The kitchen is efficiently designed with sleek wood-grain cabinetry extending to the upper walls, white countertops, and a full suite of stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator, dishwasher, built-in microwave, and smooth-top range — delivering both style and functionality in a compact footprint. The bedroom is calm and understated, with generous wall space, high ceilings, and a clean, neutral palette that promotes rest and relaxation. The bathroom continues the modern aesthetic with a floating wood-toned vanity, white countertop, mirrored medicine cabinet, and a tub-shower combination accented by a patterned curtain, all set against light walls and dark flooring for a polished finish.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
