5001 North Wolcott Avenue, Unit 204Chicago, IL 60640Price: $450,000

Welcome home to this spectacular 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom loft perched on the top floor of the iconic Candy Factory Condominiums in the heart of Ravenswood. Rarely available and impossible to replicate, this former candy factory conversion is the definition of one-of-a-kind Chicago living. Soaring 13-foot timber ceilings, exposed brick, wall-to-wall windows, and a wood burning fireplace create a warm, dramatic space that is equal parts character and comfort. The open-concept floor plan lives large, and the loft in the guest bedroom is perfect as a guest nook or private retreat. The kitchen and bathroom have been thoughtfully refreshed with modern choices, all while maintaining the character and uniqueness of the space. Additional highlights include hardwood floors, a tankless water heater, an updated washer and dryer, smart thermostat, and modern light fixtures throughout. Move right in and not have to touch a thing. Outside your door, a shared fenced-in side yard with a paver patio, grill, and gardening space offers a rare outdoor escape in the city. Storage and one exterior parking space are included. And the location could not be better: a true walker's paradise, just steps from the Ravenswood Metra, Winnemac Park, Mariano's, and some of the best dining and retail the neighborhood has to offer. Space like this, at this price point, does not come around often.
