Overlooking both lively 57th Street and the colorful homes along South Harper Avenue, this red brick building adds to the eclectic streetscape with projected black stone bay windows that provide additional space, light and air to the interiors. The influence of the Arts and Crafts Movement can be seen in simple terracotta detailing along the exterior, while older European traditions are revealed in the rusticated stonework at the base and corners of the facade. The property stands in a convenient location close to Jackson Park, Lake Shore Drive and public transportation into the city.

Bordering Washington Park to the East, Hyde Park is a popular and culturally diverse South Side community. Lush, spacious parks and the University of Chicago campus dominate the neighborhood. Although there is a wide selection of luxury communities, there are many apartments and rental houses that are surprisingly affordable, attracting students, faculty, staff, and any renters looking for a good deal.
This small park-like neighborhood is rich with history. Hyde Park is home to one of Chicago’s most famous landmarks: The Museum of Science and Industry, the largest science museum in the Western Hemisphere. Hyde Park was also home to the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition, several Nobel Prize winners, and former President Barack Obama. The neighborhood is surrounded by beautiful green spaces, lush foliage, and lakefront parks with small beaches. Midway Plaisance Park is a long stretch of parkland with sports facilities and an outdoor skating rink.
