636 West Waveland Avenue, Unit 4DChicago, IL 60613Price: $240,000

Welcome home to Unit 4D at Waveland Court, a gated 1926 courtyard building on one of East Lakeview's most sought-after blocks. This top-floor one-bedroom sits above the treetops, with sunny living room windows looking out over the landscaped courtyard below. The living room is anchored by a true wood-burning fireplace, a rare find that makes Chicago winters something to look forward to. Hardwood floors run through the living room and bedroom. The eat-in kitchen offers warm wood cabinetry, granite counters, a glass mosaic backsplash, stainless steel appliances including a gas range and dishwasher, and a built-in breakfast bar, and it opens onto a private balcony made for morning coffee or evening grilling. The bedroom comfortably fits a queen bed and has generous closet space. The bath features a marble-topped vanity and a full tub with shower. An in-unit washer and dryer, a private walk-in storage locker and a bike room take care of the practical side. Monthly assessments cover heat, gas, water, cable, internet and building upkeep, which keeps utility bills simple. The building is pet friendly. Parking is available nearby. The location is hard to beat. You are a short walk from the lakefront path, Waveland Golf Course, Montrose and Belmont Harbors, Wrigley Field, and the shops and restaurants of Broadway and Clark. Express buses to the Loop, a Divvy station and quick Lake Shore Drive access make the commute easy. Grocery stores, pharmacies and a fitness center are all within a few blocks. Top-floor light, vintage character and a lakefront address at an accessible price. Schedule your showing today.
