About This Home

12 Month Lease , Available Now

Steps from the Dempster Purple Line and Metra—downtown Chicago is basically your extended backyard Minutes to Lake Michigan and the kind of parks that make you “become a morning person” Close to downtown Evanston’s indie shops, good coffee, and “just one more drink” bars Near Northwestern and some of the best schools in the area This is the sweet spot between vintage charm and modern convenience, wrapped in a neighborhood that actually feels like home.

This isn’t just an apartment—it’s a mood. Tucked into a classic Evanston courtyard building, this 2-bedroom gives you vintage bones with a modern glow-up, all in a location that makes car ownership feel optional. Inside, you’ll find: Hardwood floors that make every rug look intentional A kitchen that’s been updated with stainless steel, a dishwasher, and “I might actually cook tonight” vibes A fully renovated bathroom—no fluorescent lights or mystery tiles here Your very own in-unit laundry (no basement coin drama) Closet space for every season and then some Window blinds for privacy without blocking your plant’s sunbathing A pet-friendly policy—because home is better with fur or feathers

918 Crain St is an apartment community located in Cook County and the 60202 ZIP Code. This area is served by the Evanston Central Consolidated School District 65 attendance zone.
