Wake up to stunning morning light and sweeping Evanston views from your private balcony. At 1,269 square feet, this well-proportioned unit offers generous living and dining space with wood floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outdoors in at every turn. The split two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout provides privacy and flexibility — ideal for working from home or hosting guests. Both bedrooms benefit from the eastern exposure, filling the unit with natural light from the moment the sun rises over Lake Michigan.
