Enjoy Chicago

This 2-bedroom in 707 W. Junior Terrace in the Buena Park neighborhood of Uptown came on the market in September 2018.

This building was constructed in 1927 and is on the National Register of Historic Places. It has 16 units (although some listings say it has just 14.)

This is a half floor unit with East and North views.

It has many vintage features including the original hardwood floors, millwork, crown molding and a wood burning fireplace in the living room with a marble hearth.

One bedroom has a built-in queen sized wall bed so it can be used as a den or office.

The master bedroom is en suite. The bathroom has Ann Sacks tile, Robern cabinetry, Grohe fixtures and a towel warmer.

The kitchen has maple and glass cabinets, granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and a separate breakfast area.

The listing says it has Marvin windows, designer lighting, custom draperies and Hunter Douglas blinds.

The unit has several features buyers look for including space pak cooling and in-unit washer/dryer.

It also says there is parking but I don’t think this building has parking. Maybe it is rental in the neighborhood?

At 1800 square feet, it is as big as most of the new construction 3-bedroom units.

Listed at just $349,000, is Buena Park a deal compared to other north side Lake neighborhoods?

Harry Maisel at @Properties has the listing. It is also agent-owned. See the pictures and floor plan here.
