If you are looking for a fantastic condominium located near recreation and shopping, this one-bedroom, one-bathroom 1200-square-foot beauty in Astor Place is the perfect choice for you! Landscaped grounds and a tranquil pond beautify the outside of the five-year-new condominium, which is just minutes from I-294 and the Metra train. Astor Place offers something for everyone: beautiful grounds for those who enjoy the outdoors, easy access to restaurants and an assortment of nearby parks. Park in the heated garage and enter the building through the front door, which is flanked on all sides by gorgeous, stately white columns. Take the elevator to your unit, which offers a tele-entry system, and then, once inside, lose yourself in the bright open space. Nine-foot ceilings create the feeling of even more space, while incredible architectural features set this unit apart. An open kitchen creates a nice space for those who enjoy cooking, and you`ll appreciate the abundance of gorgeous maple cabinets, which create a sleek and modern feel in this very usable space. A computer nook in the kitchen allows those who work from home or just want a bit more office space, the perfect area in which to store a computer and extra files. Having an intimate dinner for two? Enjoy your food in this eat-in kitchen. Hosting a party and need more dining space? Move to the spacious formal dining room, which offers enough room for a table and a hutch. Neutral wall colors and nine-foot ceilings in the dining room open up this area as well. While you cook, guests can be seated in the bonus family room, which is almost unheard of in a condominium space. An open bar area creates a great flow from the kitchen to the family room area, making it a great place to entertain or relax. The condominium`s inviting living room, which is located just off of the family room and the kitchen, offers a wonderful balcony for relaxing and enjoying the serene surroundings. The balcony is also accessible from the master bedroom; simply step through beautiful French doors. From your bedroom enjoy views of both the pond and the courtyard. Carpeting and neutral paint really give this room a tranquil feel, and two double closets offer the owner an excellent amount of space for storing clothes, shoes and other accessories. The condo`s large bathroom, which is accessible through the master bedroom as well as through the hallway, offers more than enough room for all of your needs. A double vanity features double sinks and a spacious countertop to store accessories. An added bonus to this condo is the in-unit laundry room; the stackable washer and dryer set will remain with the home. There is so much space in this condo! This second floor, almost-new Astor Place unit features more than enough living area for the new owner, as well as an enormous amount of storage space; much more than you will find in most comparable one-bedroom, one-bathroom condos. From the two double closets in the master bedroom to the abundant maple cabinets in the kitchen, the new owner will not have to search for places to store accessories. In addition, an individual storage unit is located in the ground-level, heated garage, allowing the owner to store and access seldom-used items without fighting the cold Chicago weather. Separation walls in the unit allow for sound control, and ample visitor`s parking will ensure that you always have room for guests.
