Completely Renovated Gold Coast 2/2 with Rare In-Unit W/D for $550,000: 1250 N. Dearborn Parkway
This 2-bedroom in 1250 N. Dearborn Parkway in the Gold Coast came on the market in April 2025. I thought I had a picture of this building, but apparently I don’t.
1250 N. Dearborn Parkway was built in 1989. It has 100 units and attached valet rental garage parking.
It has 24/7 door staff, an exercise room and a renovated rooftop landscaped terrace with views of the skyline. It has grills, a pergola, tables and lounge chairs.
The listing says this unit has been “completely renovated” and is “transformed to perfection.”
On the 16th floor, it has east facing views from its 15×6 balcony.
The unit has dark hardwood floors throughout and custom crown molding.
It has 2 full size baths, one with a walk-in-shower and the other with a bath.
The kitchen has white cabinets, stone counter tops, a white farmhouse sink, a white tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances.
There’s a separate dining room.
It has a split floor plan.
The primary suite appears to have an en suite bathroom.
The unit has central air, washer/dryer in the unit (the listing says it’s a “rarity” in the building), and garage parking is available. I saw one listing that said it was $325 a month.
Cats and dogs are allowed.
This building is near the shops and restaurants of the Gold Coast including the 3 Arts Cafe at RH, the 3rd Coast Cafe, and Mario’s Table and the Jewel grocery store on Division.
Buses and the subway are a few blocks away.
Listed at $550,000, it last sold in 2021, unrenovated, for $360,000.
Additionally, many of the listings now say “washer/dryer can be added to the unit.” The building never allowed in-unit washers previously.
A larger 2/2 on the 17th floor with corner exposures, Unit #17C, is under contract at $569,900. It also has the washer/dryer in the unit.
See the pictures here.
Is the washer/dryer a gamechanger for the building?
Matthew Druker and Caroline Druker at Baird & Warner have the listing. See the pictures here (sorry, no floor plan).
