Colorful two-bedroom in the heart of Wicker Park seeks $385K

Located on the floor level of a vintage Wicker Park multi-unit building, this spacious 1,200-square-foot condo checks off a number of boxes. With two-bedrooms and one and a half bathrooms, there’s room for a guest bedroom, a child’s bedroom, or home office and not feel cramped. There’s also an updated though not over-the-top kitchen that leads out to a lovely outdoor deck space.

However, those who are fans of Chicago vernacular architecture and vintage finishes will be pleases to see many original pieces have been left intact here. The old built-in in the formal dining room, hand-carved door and window frames, and vintage hardware are all here. But this isn’t a stuffy, unmanageable place for living—it’s a subtle and functional blend of old and new.

The monthly assessment is a very reasonable $170 and garage parking is included in the $385,000 asking price.
