About this unit

Welcome to this light-filled, refreshed condo at I.M. Pei's classic University Park Condominiums. This cheery property overlooks a sunny open space and serene courtyard views. Step into the condo and see the classic kitchen showcasing ample storage and an eat-at peninsula. The large, open living room overlooks the quiet courtyard and is roomy enough to easily be used for both living and dining areas and showcases five large floor-to-ceiling windows. The adjacent bedroom is sunny and cheery with a large closet and boasts the same views as the living area through its three large windows. Another generous hallway closet and a spacious, bright bathroom round out this condo. Large windows that bring in light, and new flooring throughout - luxury vinyl flooring in common areas and carpet in living area and bedroom make the unit a retreat year-round. Rarely available garage space (6AW) is included as well, as is additional storage in lower level. This well-maintained building offers round-the-clock door staff, on-site management, multiple laundry rooms, elevators, a gym and an outdoor pool access (both with a small fee) and serene gardens. Fantastic location in Hyde Park - close to restaurants, coffee shops, entertainment, shopping, grocery and to the beautiful lakefront and multiple parks. Easy commuter access too - University of Chicago shuttle at door; close to bus, El and Metra for downtown Chicago; and minutes to Lake Shore Drive - even more convenient with your own garage parking spot! This spacious, convenient condo is being offered As-Is. Own for less than your rent or purchase and rent out - this is an investor-friendly building! This is one to see - make your appointment today!

Where it is

FAQ

Where do these listings come from?

Straight from the Midwest Real Estate Data (MRED) MLS, refreshed regularly — the same listings your buyer's agent sees, no curated subset.

Can I work with Dibze to buy?

Yes. A licensed Chicago buyer's agent lines up tours, writes offers, and handles the close. The seller pays the commission, so it's free to you — and we rebate part of it back at closing.

Can I rent in this building?

If owners are leasing units, the For Rent tab shows them. These are individual condo owners listing through the MLS, so lease terms and pet rules vary by unit.

How is this different from Redfin or Zillow?

Same MLS feed, different model — we don't sell your contact info or turn every click into a lead. One Dibze condo expert handles your whole search and represents you, not the seller.
