This oversized 3-piece, one-bedroom Co-Op combines vintage charm with modern conveniences, located just steps from Bryn Mawr's restaurants, shops, the Lakefront, and close to Andersonville and Lakewood Balmoral. The building, a beautifully maintained yellow brick structure with outstanding terracotta detailing, features a welcoming courtyard and is managed by an impeccably maintained association. The unit retains its original vintage layout, offering a large living room, a separate dining room adjacent to the kitchen, a built-in wall storage closet, and a foyer with a convenient coat closet. The space benefits from great natural light, which highlights the hardwood flooring throughout. The bathroom has been recently updated and tiled, adding a modern touch to this classic property.

Additional amenities include laundry and bike storage in the basement. The property is situated on ultra-convenient Winthrop, offering immediate access to the Red Line, multiple bus lines, and is within walking distance to both Mariano's and Jewel.
