The 2nd bedroom is massive and makes a great combo guest room and office and also has it's own walk in closet and is close to the updated hallway bathroom. This lakefront home is just minutes away from the coming Obama Presidential Center, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Hyde Park retail shopping district, public transportation, University of Chicago and the renowned Laboratory School.
