Massive Duplex Apartment with Vintage Charm Rarely Available
This is not your standard Chicago one-bedroom. This oversized duplex feels more like a small single-family home than an apartment. Spread across two spacious floors and sitting above the other units, this home gives you privacy, character, and space you simply won't find elsewhere.
Step inside and you'll immediately notice the hardwood floors, vintage charm, and sunlight pouring through large windows. The living areas are huge perfect for entertaining, working from home, or just stretching out without compromise. A private balcony gives you outdoor space for morning coffee, grilling, or winding down after a long day.
The kitchen features granite countertops, hardwood cabinets, and a full appliance package (stove, oven, fridge) everything you need. Services like snow removal, trash, and lawn care are all included, along with water, so your monthly costs stay low. Parking is available for just $175/month.
This apartment has been home to the same tenant for the past 12 years a testament to how special it is. Normally renting for $3,000 in peak season, this unit is now available at $2,600 with significantly reduced move-in costs. Opportunities like this don't come up often.
Schedule a showing today to truly experience the size and charm the photos can't do it justice.
