Welcome to this impeccably updated, super rare two-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath duplex-up in the heart of East Lakeview. Located on a charming, tree-lined street, this home offers the perfect blend of modern upgrades and timeless Chicago character. Step into the open-concept main level, where refinished hardwood floors (2020) and smart-controlled lighting set the tone for contemporary living. The wide floor plan provides ample space for both living and formal dining to fit comfortably, features a newly re-tiled fireplace and opens up directly to the first of two spacious private outdoor spaces. The thoughtfully renovated kitchen (2020) features sleek new appliances, quartz countertops, a stylish newly added island perfect for entertaining, and an elegant, custom-built bar (2020) with hidden "appliance garage" and extra storage that elevates the space. A sleek half bath rounds out this space. Upstairs, retreat to a spacious primary suite with vaulted ceilings, it's own private outdoor space, and an attached five-fixture primary bath that underwent a full gut renovation in 2023-offering a luxurious, spa-like experience with high-end finishes, exceptional attention to detail, and even it's own vaulted ceiling with skylight and incredible ceiling height tile work. One additional bedroom and a full bath complete the upper floor of this rare layout condo. Additional upgrades include a brand new hot water heater (2023) and seamless integration of smart home features throughout the main floor.
