Spacious 1-bedroom-plus-den vintage co-op at 5470 S. Woodlawn, Unit 1W, in Hyde Park, Chicago. This nearly 1,000-square-foot residence lives like a 2-bedroom, with a separate den, all-season sunroom, or flex space that works beautifully as a home office, guest room, nursery, or art studio. Set in a beautiful vintage courtyard building with lovely landscaping, this move-in ready co-op is full of classic 1920s character. Inside, you will find original hardwood floors, decorative fire-place, elegant crown molding, wainscoting, original door hardware, and a beautiful built-in sideboard/hutch that adds warmth, charm, and timeless architectural detail. The layout includes both a spacious living room and a formal dining room, creating a comfortable and functional floor plan for everyday living and entertaining. The formal dining room opens to the all-season sunroom overlooking the courtyard, giving the home a bright and flexible bonus space. The generously sized kitchen features a stainless steel appliance package, ample cabinet and counter space, and built-in wine storage. As a co-op, the monthly assessment of $717 includes property taxes and heat, so there is no separate tax bill. Rentals are permitted, making this a flexible option for investors and owner-occupants alike. Ample street parking is available, and the home includes an additional large basement storage unit measuring approximately 10 x 5 x 10. The location is the standout. You are a 7-minute walk from the University of Chicago main campus and a 10-minute walk from the University of Chicago Laboratory Schools. Downtown Hyde Park, with its shops and restaurants, is within walking distance, along with Trader Joe's, Target, Starbucks and CVS. A bus stop is located around the corner, and Lake Michigan, Promontory Point, and surrounding green spaces are just a short walk away. This Hyde Park co-op offers the square footage and flexibility of a 2-bedroom at a reasonable price point, along with the charm of a true vintage gem in one of Chicago's most established lakefront neighborhoods.

5 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 11898345 MLS ⋅ CLOSED Status

This is the opportunity of the year to purchase a mid-century IM Pei E1 row house in close to original condition aggressively priced to reflect a new owner doing substantial work to bring it to 2024 finish. On the University of Chicago campus, it is a terrific location across from the lovely Nichols Park with playgrounds, tennis courts, dog friendly areas and just a lovely place to hang out in all sorts of weather. There is a dedicated parking spot out back, although there is often street parking right out front. A protected bike lane on 55th will get you to the lakefront in minutes if you like to pedal. Trader Joes and Walgreens are down the street and you are surrounded by restaurants at every turn. The house itself is a classic E1 with hardwood floors on the main and third level and hardwood stairs edged by the vertical wood balustrades on the main floor and iron balustrades above. The sunny kitchen has original wood cabinets, the original harvest gold double oven which is currently inoperable, as are the dishwasher, cooktop and vent fan above it. The refrigerator works. The hot water heater and A/C are working well and the roof has had no leaks. Several of the ceilings have been redone. The primary bedroom with ensuite bath extends the entire width of the house with room for the king size bed as well as two closets. The other two bedrooms are flooded with south sunshine all day long. Below them, the dining room and kitchen share the sliding glass doors to the south facing balcony. There was carpeting covering the entire main level for many years which was recently removed to reveal hardwood floors in very good shape. Having all the floors and stairs refinished would bring them back to like-new condition. On the lower level, the owners historically worked from home years before it became the rage in 2020. They worked in their respective offices, so they built a corridor to the back door and enclosed what customarily would be the open family room in the back. One could keep them as separate closed rooms or open the rear one up to its original configuration. In the last many years, the owner was confined to this floor. Luckily the back room is filled with light overlooking the backyard which has a gazebo deck. The washer and dryer were moved out of the utility room into the closet of the front bedroom. The HVAC and hot water heater were enclosed by glass sliding doors and a large roll-in tiled shower was installed. There are no steps into the house from the parking in the back, so the lower level is wheelchair accessible. After rehab, the house will have great value because these are homes that people love to settle into and rarely leave. The perfect location with the Ray School, the Murray School, the Lab School and St. Thomas schools all close by as well as the Hyde Park Neighborhood Center right across the street. And of course, in this most walkable of neighborhoods, all of buildings of the University are just a short walk or roll away. This is, emphatically, an AS-IS sale. Assume that you will have to do everything and then be surprised when you don't.
