Welcome to The Old Town Collection. This Grand 4-Unit Greystone features a highly desirable oversized unit mix of 3 and 5-bedroom units. These spacious apartments are a rare find along the Wells corridor, where there is a notable scarcity of rental options with three or more bedrooms. This is particularly advantageous in this high-demand location that often attracts renters seeking to share living expenses with multiple roommates, and makes these units exceptionally valuable.
Just a few blocks from the Sedgwick CTA Brown & Purple Lines, the Clark & Division CTA Red Line, various CTA bus stops, and Lake Shore Drive, 1539 N. Wells St. provides unparalleled access to transportation. Additionally, residents enjoy convenient access to many local dining and shopping options, North Avenue Beach, Lincoln Park Zoo and recreational park space.
Family-owned restaurants are fixtures of the neighborhood and the depth of the variety runs deep: barbeque ribs, sushi, steak frites, pasta and pizza are all noteworthy. You can continue to soak up area history at one of the more seasoned taverns, though new bars and boutiques keep Old Town forever young and hip.
For entertainment, comedy takes center stagewith The Second City and Zanies Comedy Club providing the laughsand the resident theater scene is stellar as well. Shopping is quite eclectic as you can pick up specialty spice blends, imported olive oils, chunks of fudge, rare wines and premium cigars all in one single spree down Wells.
In addition to rent a monthly Bundled Services rent charge applies.
All lease incentives (rent concessions and/or rent credits) advertised are based on the advertised market rate of the unit. Actual credits will be the per diem value of the advertised amount as a percentage of the actual rent paid by the tenant.
