High-floor corner unit with sweeping views of East Lakeview and Wrigley Field in one of the neighborhood's most coveted elevator buildings, 555 W. Cornelia. This spacious 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home spans 1,150 square feet and features a desirable open-concept layout, new hardwood flooring, and a private balcony with expansive northern exposure. The large combined living and dining area easily accommodates a full living room setup along with a formal dining table. The open kitchen features stainless steel appliances that include a convection microwave and convection oven/range, abundant floor to ceiling cabinetry, a large Lazy Susan, and an oversized peninsula, perfect for entertaining. A private 12' x 6' balcony located just off the living room offers space for a bistro set and grill, making it a true extension of the living space. Both bedrooms are generously sized, able to accommodate a king sized bed, and receive an abundance of natural light through large windows. The en-suite primary bathroom has been remodeled with a brand new vanity, fixtures, and tile. Both bathrooms offer new plumbing, fixtures and dual six inch deep heated mirror medicine cabinets for added storage. Additional upgrades include the entire unit being plastered and painted, closet upgrades with automatic lighting, and new lighting fixtures throughout the unit. Monthly assessments include heat, water, cable, high-speed internet, additional storage, and access to all building amenities. Rental garage parking is available on-site for $180/month, and residents enjoy access to a clean, phone-operated laundry room. Recently renovated building amenities include an in-ground outdoor pool, expansive resort-style sundeck with lounge seating, common grilling area, party room, and bike storage. Located on a quiet, tree-lined block in East Lakeview, just a short distance from Belmont Harbor and the lakefront trail, this home offers easy access to Lake Shore Drive and is surrounded by multiple CTA options, including the Red Line and express bus service. Jewel, Whole Foods, and a vibrant mix of restaurants, shops, and nightlife on Broadway, Halsted, and Clark are all just blocks away.
