This 1200-square foot 1-bedroom brick and timber loft in the Donohue Building at 711 S. Dearborn just came on the market. The kitchen and bath have been upgraded since the original conversion in the 1990s. It has espresso cabinets, stainless steel appliances and a white tile backsplash. There are also white tiles in the bathroom. […]
We’ve chattered about this house at 3526 N. Marshfield in Lakeview several times over the last year. See our April 2012 chatter here. It not only has “ornately carved faces” on the exterior (see the listing to see plenty of pictures) but in prior listings it talked about “underground tunnels”- although that reference has now […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom French Normandy house at 1901 N. Newcastle in Galewood in May 2013. See our prior chatter here. Previously, it was the most expensive home on the market in Galewood but that is no longer the case as it has been reduced to $347,000. If you recall, it was built […]
We last chattered about this 2-bedroom cottage at 3908 N. Paulina in Lakeview in July 2011. See our prior chatter here. The house has been on and off the market since February 2009. Listed in 2011 for $400,000, Homedelete thought it would sell quickly due to it being in Blaine even though it doesn’t have […]
We last chattered about this 3-bedroom penthouse loft at the Gallery Lofts at 3323 N. Paulina in Lakeview in May 2013. See our prior chatter here. If you recall, it had many features that loft lovers crave including a timber beamed ceiling. There was a 3-story atrium with a spiral staircase that connected the floors. The kitchen, with […]
I always love seeing properties we chattered about years ago come back on the market like this 2-bedroom townhouse at 648 W. Willow in Lincoln Park. We last chattered about it in April 2008. See our chatter here (with interior pictures). Boy, how things have changed since then in the Chicago housing market. The townhouse […]
This 3-bedroom at 500 W. Superior in River North came on the market in May 2013. We’ve been chattering about “family” sized condo units and whether or not you could have single family home amenities in a downtown high rise. This unit fits many of the unicorn criteria. The north facing unit has 3056 square […]
We were chattering recently about the perceived lack of large “family” type condos in downtown high rises where you could raise a few kids and enjoy high rise amenities like pools and party rooms. A lot of new condo development still seems to be marketed to 20-somethings without kids who don’t need a lot of […]
