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.

It is nestled right behind the Kimbark Plaza which boasts restaurants, shops, a CVS and the famed Hyde Park Produce store.

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.

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.
