Discover this rarely available spacious two bedroom, 2 bathroom corner home in the heart of Lincoln Park. Originally built in 1882, Dickens Place is one of DePaul's most impressive & successful soft loft restorations. Formerly a Piano Parts factory, this Victorian industrial complex was redesigned for single level residential living in 1986 by architect Roy Kruse. Enter through double doors to find a large open floorplan. The living Room has a wood burning fireplace, tons of room for a large sectional sofa, a separate dining Area, walls of windows let in the South-East exposure light, and hardwood floors throughout. The smartly designed kitchen that opens to the dining area features granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and 42 cabinets. The large primary suite has ample closets, and a large en-suite bath with a large whirlpool tub and a separate shower. The second bedroom with great closets, and second bath complete the home. This hidden gem at Dickens & Racine is an elevator building, showcases a large shared courtyard in the 2nd floor atrium with grills and tables and chairs, a fitness room, and additional storage. The building is dog friendly and professionally managed. Two parking spaces (1 indoor, 1 outdoor) are included in the price, and the building also boasts free guest parking! Just steps to the Brown Line, DePaul University, Trader Joe's, and all Armitage Avenue has to offer!
