Dames and Dons. Speakeasy and sip slowly. Get all jazzed up in the Windy City. Where, amidst the hubbub of the 1920's, 426 West Surf opened its doors for the first time. And today its restored and rehabbed residences are still the cat's pajamas.
Steps from the beaches, running/biking trails and indeed, all of the glorious greenery, these handsome rental homes make for an ideal abode in the midst of Lincoln Park, one of the city's finest neighborhoods.
Head inside and it begins with a charming layout featuring hardwood floors, spacious closets and kitchens with new appliances including dishwasher and built-in microwave. You'll find an on-site laundry facility, fitness center and bike room and will enjoy nice extras like individually-controlled heat and air conditioning and amenities such as complimentary internet. For great downtown living (with a nifty sundeck), it's the Real McCoy.
