At last! An E townhome finally hitting the market in the heart of the University of Chicago campus nestled between 55th and 56th St. on a quiet hidden street just a block from the Hyde Park Shopping Center with the Trader Joes, new Barnes and Noble, Walgreens, Ace Hardware and wonderful restaurants and independent shops. For over 30 years, the current owner has played on her Steinway in the lower level family room. The home has been lovingly maintained over the many years, and has much of the original mid-century details still untouched. However, central AC was added to the main and upper floors and all of the windows were replaced with easy to operate double paned windows. As in all these I.M. Pei houses, the main and upper levels were finished in genuine oak flooring including the stairs. These stairs have been carpeted for many years, so they should be able to be refinished to become as beautiful as when they were installed in 1961. The original mid-century wood kitchen cabinets gleam. The stainless steel appliances and granite countertops are much newer including the brand new dishwasher (2026). A big sliding glass door leads out to the balcony overlooking the landscaped back yard and the private footpath separating this row of houses from the row that faces 55th St. There is also a storage shed. The living room has another sliding glass door leading to a small balcony. Just to the east are two common green spaces with mature trees that the entire association shares and enjoys. The north space is a wide open quiet space with seating which has a new fire pit that burns cherry wood and has been used for winter gatherings with cocoa and s'mores. The south space hosts a livelier combination of playground equipment and tables and seating for picnics and get-togethers. The residents are notably friendly, helpful, exchange information and socialize with each other. The separate dining room is also is lit by the glass door that looks out to the back yard. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms and a full bath. The primary bedroom spans the entire width of the house and has a full wall of windows. The lower level has the big family room with floor to ceiling windows looking out to the garden and a door for easy access to the back patio and garden. It has a carpet covering the floor. The utility room has a full size washer (2026) and dryer (2025), a boiler for the hot water baseboard heat, a hot water heater and an electrical box that is poised for replacement. Many owners of this model of house have installed a shower stall to open into the powder room on the other side of the wall to create a full bathroom. In the front of the lower level is the 4th bedroom with a full length window looking out to the front yard. There is a deep walk-in storage space fitted with shelves above the front entrance of the house which also houses the air handler for the central A/C. A smaller storage closet is under the stairs on the lower level. Out front there is plentiful parking. While none is assigned, the owner has never lacked for a space. There are currently some member-designated disability parking places. Ramps have been cut into curbs in several places to allow wheelchair accessibility. This is the location everyone has been waiting for. While having easy access to retail and transportation, it's also amazingly quiet and peaceful protected from major roads and even foot traffic. It's an easy walk or roll to the buildings of the University of Chicago, both Lab Schools, and the 57th St. sandy beach on the lake. It's in the Ray School district as well which is an easy walk away. Take your bike to the lakefront path. It's an 11 minute commute on the Metra to the Loop and it is estimated to take 17 minutes to drive. There are commuter buses nearby as well. The restaurants and bookstores of 57th St are close by. A lovely home in a terrific location. Walk Score says it's a walkers' and bikers' paradise with good transit options.

Mid Century Modern living at its best. Completely updated townhome in the Common Corporation Townhouse enclave that was built in 1965 designed by a Harry Weese acolyte, Ezra Gordon. It is nestled right behind the Kimbark Plaza which boasts restaurants, shops, a CVS and the famed Hyde Park Produce store. Some of the homes face Kimbark, but this house faces south to the mature tree filled private walled courtyard. Freshly painted, it has a cool, open 60's feel with gleaming hardwood floors on both the main level, stairs and the upper level. The staircase is an architectural focal point encased in vertical oak planking rising from floor to ceiling in the living room. A major renovation in 2021 brought this house to the new century standard. The dining room chandelier is a recent installation and will stay with the house. The kitchen has white painted wooden shaker cabinets, black stainless appliances including the dishwasher and refrigerator which are new from 2023, a vented hood, white quartz counters with a marbled design, subway tiled backsplash and porcelain plank tiles on the floor. The kitchen has plenty of room for a table and chairs with views through the windows to the private walled patio and garden. The baths were also renovated with new fixtures and vanities as well as porcelain plank tiled floors. New copper plumbing and new electrical wiring were installed in 2021 as well as a hard-wired security system. The windows are all replacements. Recessed lights are in the living room, kitchen and the finished recreation room in the basement. The basement also has an unfinished room for the laundry (including a laundry chute), HVAC, a workbench and lots of storage. The private back yard is completely fenced and has a brick patio, a grassy area, raised planters and a beautiful tree. The HVAC system also dates from 2021 and the roof was replaced in 2019. An assigned parking space is in the parking lot accessed from the east on 52nd St and there is street parking as well. When you are in the house with views of trees through all of the windows, it is hard to believe that you are so close to all of the vibrant shops and restaurants that line 53rd St. It's an easy walk or roll to the University of Chicago, the Museum of Science and Industry and the lakefront. Everyone is eagerly awaiting the opening of the Barack Obama Center which promises not only wonderful programming, but also parks with activities surrounding it. Buses run up and down Hyde Park Boulevard just a block and a half to the north and the express bus to the Loop and the Metra are a few blocks to the east. It's a terrific home in a terrific location.
