Great apartment in Roscoe Village (just west of Lakeview and north of Bucktown) available because of job relocation.
- $1500/month paid to the management company (includes parking spot)
- 2 bedrooms (although the second bedroom is smaller – might be cramped with a queen sized bed, we currently use it for an office).
- 1 large, newly renovated bathroom. Good water pressure.
- Open floor plan with living room, dining room, and kitchen all connecting. Great for entertaining.
- High ceilings – making it feel much larger than it actually is, especially if you are a giant, like myself.
- Wooden floors – nice enough, but not brand new.
- Dish washer, nice oven and microwave.
- In unit washer and dryer (have you ever experienced true luxury?)
- Central air (heating and AC) – like I said, luxury.
- Great natural lighting with big windows in the living room.
- Okay storage space, nice big closet in the master bedroom, with a closet in the second bedroom, as well as storage in back stairway.
- Right above a starbucks.
- Walking distance of Roscoe Village restaurants and shops on Roscoe Street, as well as our personal favorite: Tony’s Burrito on Damen. Torta’s for 6 bucks, you know?
- Close to all kinds of action: bars, restaurants, large regal IMAX theater, and lots more as you go closer to the water.
- Easy access to the Belmont bus, 15 minute-ish ride to either the blue/red/brown lines to get downtown or to O’Hare (if you’re the adventurous traveling type).
- Only two apartments in the building (neighbor is very nice) and just starbucks below – so no one to stomp around on top of you or make a ton of noise, or to complain if you want to make noise for that matter.
- The management company is fantastic. We haven’t had any real problems but when we’ve needed anything they are always responsive and take care of things quickly.
- 2.2 miles from the lake, and a stones throw from Target, Costco, Mariano’s, several Jewel Osco’s, and pretty much anything else your heart desires.
Love it!
Such a beautiful space.
And the listing is perfect! 🙂
Ahhh! It's so perfect.
Alright first of all, that is the most perfectly looking apartment I've ever seen. i feel sad for you that you have to leave it! Also there's nothing better when people write hilarious classified ads. I love it. Also this is my first time reading your blog, and so far I'm way into it.
