Newly Renovated 2/2 with Parking in Printers Row for $450,000: 547 S. Clark
This 2-bedroom in the Harrison Street Lofts at 547 S. Clark in Printers Row originally came on the market in November 2023. It was removed in mid-December and then relisted on December 30.
Harrison Street Lofts is an industrial building which was converted into lofts in 1998. The top floors were added at that time. There are 60 units and attached garage parking.
The building does not have door staff but it does have an exercise room.
This unit is on the 11th floor, which is one of the floors added later. Is it even a loft?
It appears to have 9 foot ceilings and it has exposed duct work but none of the other features of authentic lofts such as timber ceilings, exposed brick or industrial windows.
The listing says it is “newly renovated.”
There’s a gas fireplace with built-ins.
It has maple hardwood floors in the main living area and berber carpet in both bedrooms.
The kitchen has white and gray cabinets and “all new” stainless steel appliances, white counter tops, a “new” white subway tile backsplash and a peninsula with a breakfast bar.
The primary bedroom has a walk-in-closet and an en suite bathroom with a whirlpool tub, walk-in-shower and double sink.
The second bedroom does not have windows.
This unit has features buyers look for including central air, washer/dryer in the unit, and garage parking is included.
It also has a balcony.
The building is located in the heart of Printers Row near shops and restaurants and near Grant Park. Transportation is easy as it is near numerous bus lines and the subway.
Listed at $450,000, that’s $5,000 below the 2007 sales price of $455,000.
Buyers love “new.”
Will the new kitchen make the sale in 2024?
