Elegant two bed, two and a half bath duplex UP with private entrance & timeless character! Nestled in a quiet, tree-lined pocket of the coveted Lincoln Park neighborhood, this residence offers a one-of-a-kind living experience-the feel of a single-family home with the price tag of a condo. Located within a boutique five-unit, all-brick building, this end-unit duplex-up exudes sophistication and warmth. Step through your PRIVATE ENTRANCE into a striking, versatile floor plan where soaring 12-foot ceilings, abundant natural light, and refined architectural details set the tone. The main level opens with a proper foyer and coat closet leading to the first of two inviting living spaces, anchored by a beautiful gas fireplace. Sunlight streams through expansive south-facing windows adorned with new wood shutters, creating an atmosphere that's both vibrant and serene. Just beyond, north-facing sliding doors open to a large private deck-perfect for relaxing among nature-seamlessly connecting to a dedicated dining area. A graceful archway introduces the second spacious living room, offering a charming vintage aesthetic that continues into the kitchen. The crisp, white kitchen is both timeless and functional, featuring quartz countertops, ample cabinetry, and a peninsula with bar seating-ideal for casual dining or conversation. A powder room on this level ensures everyday convenience. Upstairs, you'll find two generous bedrooms and two full baths, including an extra-large primary suite with stackable laundry, custom built-in wood nightstands, and a spa-inspired ensuite behind elegant French doors. The steam shower and private water closet elevate this retreat into a true sanctuary. Thoughtful nooks on both levels offer perfect spaces for work-from-home or reading. The building has recently updated its landscaped courtyard, now featuring new outdoor furniture and a cozy fire pit within a fully fenced backyard. Garage parking-deeded and included-is just steps from your door, with additional storage, as well. Situated at Southport and Belden, this location is unbeatable. Stroll to Pequod's Pizza, Sweet Mandy B's, Bird's Nest Tavern, artisan coffee shops, and beloved local boutiques. Parks, pickleball courts, Mariano's, and public transit are all nearby. Located in the highly sought-after Oscar Mayer Elementary district, this home combines lifestyle, convenience, and enduring value. Pet-friendly. Fully owner occupied but rentals allowed. Low HOA. Building has new roof! A rare opportunity to own a home that beautifully blends historic Lincoln Park charm with modern sophistication-in one of Chicago's most walkable and desirable neighborhoods.
