Built in 1949

This thoughtfully designed one-bedroom unit in the 1949 Jackson Court Apartments Co-operative has been meticulously restored by the current owner, creating a unique mid-century oasis overlooking Jackson Park. The original hardwood floors, solid wood doors, and plaster walls throughout have all been refurbished to pristine condition. The large combination living and dining room is bathed in light from massive courtyard-facing windows. In the kitchen, the original solid wood cabinets and porcelain Crane double sink have all been preserved, now joined by a brand-new electric stove and refrigerator. In the bathroom, the original mid-century tub has been professionally refinished and a period sink with Crane fixtures newly installed. Heat is radiant from the floors & ceilings, controlled by an in-unit thermostat, and included in your assessment. Ample in-unit closets, as well as bike & storage space in the basement. The location is ideal - just a stone's throw to the University of Chicago campus & hospital, shopping and dining on 57th Street, Jackson Park and the Midway, 57th Street Metra, express buses downtown, the Obama Presidential Center, and 57th Street access to Lake Shore Drive and the Lakefront Trail. There is coin/app-operated laundry in the basement, and parking spaces are only $20/mo. The low monthly assessments include taxes and all utilities except electric. This building is one of the mid-century jewels of the lakefront. Rarely does a unit come along that has been this well-restored, and at this price point.
