About this unit
Top-floor one-bedroom, one-bath condo with views of a landscaped courtyard featuring mature trees and nicely maintained grounds. Set back off the main street in a beautifully maintained, professionally managed three-story walk-up, this unit offers a quiet retreat away from traffic noise. Being on the top floor, it enjoys an extra level of peace and quiet. The home has been freshly painted throughout, and the bathroom features a new vanity, mirror, and light fixture. The kitchen and dining area are flooded with natural light from south-facing exposures - a layout some similar units have altered, but this one preserves the open, bright dining space. Three spacious walk-in closets and an assigned large storage locker in the basement provide generous storage. Laundry facilities are located in the building's basement (three laundry rooms available); no in-unit laundry is permitted at this time. Public transportation is easily accessible, taking you anywhere in Hyde Park and downtown via CTA or Metra. Walk to the University of Chicago campus and hospital, plus nearby trendy restaurants and shops. Cat-friendly building (up to two per unit). A wonderful opportunity for comfortable, low-maintenance living.

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.
