This apartment is spacious and bright, with lots of natural light and a flexible layout that comfortably accommodates 4-5 bedrooms. PLEASE NOTE: FURNISHINGS ARE SHOWN FOR REFERENCE. THE APARTMENT DOES NOT COME FURNISHED. Just 6 minutes on foot to Loyola University's Lake Shore Campus. One block from the beaches of Lake Michigan. 6 minutes to the CTA Red Line Loyola Station connecting you to the rest of the city, and only 3 minutes to the stop for the 147 express bus that goes straight downtown. This is the perfect apartment for a group of Loyola friends looking to live on their own while remaining close to their classes and the heart of campus. It's also one of the best locations from which to experience the great city of Chicago - from its vibrant Northside neighborhoods to its renowned urban beaches to the glamorous downtown.
