About 5209 S Ingleside Ave Unit 2

Welcome to historic and beautiful Hyde Park! Here's your opportunity to live in an updated condo in a nice residential neighborhood that is easy access to the University of Chicago, University of Chicago Hospital and the iconic Lake Shore Drive and Lakefront Trail! A recent price improvement makes this lovely condo even more attractive. All the hardwood floors have been recently refinished and the entire unit has been repainted. Three bedrooms and two full baths mean room to spread out ~ or use the third bedroom as a cozy office, den or hang-out space! There is a spacious sunroom at the front of the unit that gets wonderful late-afternoon light and a private, covered deck at the back~perfect for alfresco dining. Kitchen has a large butcher-block counter, stainless steel appliances and lots of storage. There's an in-unit washer/dryer, (it's in a closet in the hallway and can be easy to walk by so don't miss it!), gas heat and central air (which many Hyde Park condos do not have). Lounge in front of the wood burning fireplace as your Hyde Park neighborhood welcomes the change of season! The building offers expansive, additional storage space in the basement as well as a secure package drop box outside the front door. Easy street parking. It's a 12-14 minute walk to the Gerald Ratner Athletic Center at the University of Chicago or the UofC Library. Easy access to Lake Shore Drive and the iconic lakefront trail which offers 18+ miles of gorgeous lakeside trail on which you can run, walk, bike, rollerblade, skateboard or access nearly endless beaches, restaurants, museums and other recreation. This is a gem in a vibrant, historic neighborhood! Self managed HOA with healthy reserves of approximately $33,000 as of Oct., 2024. No specials in the forecast. No pet restrictions. Owner may rent but building must be at least 75% owner occupied per HOA. NOTE: If parents are thinking of purchasing for a student and that student lives with roommates, that counts as "owner occupied" and avoids the rental cap. NEW dining room light fixture (Oct 2024); Hardwood floors repaired and refinished (Sept 2024); interior completely repainted (Oct 2024); all rear decks repaired, pressure washed and repainted (Oct 2024); roof resealed (2023); all new copper water pipes installed in both basements (2022).
