Modern apartment new in 2020 with easy access to 18th Street restaurants, Fulton Market & Downtown via Pink L train (0.5 mile). Comfy KING BED, pullout sofa, laundry in-unit, FULLY STOCKED kitchen, private outdoor patio, grill & firepit! Heart of Chicago is a quiet, incredibly well-preserved area at the edge of Chicago’s hip Pilsen neighborhood, brimming with original 1880s vintage character & unique architectural charm, + the best Italian & Mexican food in Chicago!
You've probably never been in a tiny place this interesting before - the condo is less than 600 square feet, but tons of incredible design ideas and fun features are tastefully packed into every inch with several smart home features. Not to mention the colorful PRIVATE PATIO with outdoor dining table & chairs, Akorn charcoal grill with accessories, tiki torches, fire pit, and café lighting. Occasional freight train sightings out the western windows! (rail line immediately adjacent to the property, quiet zone with no horns)
After 2 years living at Lake 24th Place, we feel we have perfected a simple lifestyle here - to provide all the ingredients necessary to have a wonderful time in a silly place. You'll see mention of Lake 24th Place - not a real lake, it does not have any water except when it rains; Lake 24th Place is a poorly maintained alley at the end of the street we've been fighting the city about for years. This is a simple place filled with incredible people who are mostly stuck in the 80s; the perfect place to find high-style comfort without the pressures of the modern world. Some may describe this neighborhood as a post-industrial afterthought, but it's honestly one of our favorite places (check out the custom typewriter poem on the wall to truly understand its essence).
Located on the second floor with a private exterior door in back near your off-street dedicated parking space (with EV charger!), or common hallway access via side door. Very convenient for getting in and out, walking dogs, food delivery, etc. This is a small multi-unit building, situated on a residential side street.
The space has no stairs inside (but stairs are required to reach the second floor). Guests can expect modern décor and amenities - the building was constructed in 2020 with all new HVAC, plumbing, electrical, fixtures, and stainless steel appliances. Owners used to live here and have upgraded this place as their own with special, unique touches and a sense of humor :). Packed with smart home features (including electronic window treatments, smart speakers, touch faucet, sensor lighting, and more) and conveniences big & small to make your experience as enjoyable as possible.
The main bedroom has a comfy King Bed with Purple mattress, pillow topper, and fluffy king size Coop pillows. This bedroom also has a Roku & Chromecast enabled 32" TV, phone charging station, and plenty of closet space.
The second "bedroom" is set up as a living room - a funky, cozy space fondly referred to as The Lounge. The couch in The Lounge is a convertible pullout & this room can be used as a second bedroom. Keep in mind you must choose between having a living room or second bedroom, the High-Style Oasis does not have both. As the saying goes: You can have anything, but you can't have everything.
This space has everything you might need to cook a full meal, entertain (including high speed Wi-Fi, board games, Chromecast/Roku TVs), or otherwise live as if you are right at home - with plenty of soap, towels, hangers, and laundry detergent.
Dedicated driveway parking space near the stairs to the unit in back with free EV charger! For extra vehicles, there is easy and available free street parking on Western Ave or 24th Street.
This is the ideal place for a single person or couple (King Bed with pillow top in the main bedroom), but the pullout couch in The Lounge (living room) is very comfortable for additional sleeping options - it is technically a second bedroom with a door and can be used as such.
