Welcome to 5133 N Kenmore Ave Unit 2N-an updated vintage condo that blends character with modern comfort just steps from the lakefront and vibrant Andersonville. The spacious, light-filled floor plan offers an open kitchen with granite countertops, stainless appliances, and a breakfast-bar island with direct access to the back deck-perfect for dining outside. A generous dining area flows into the living room with a cozy gas fireplace. The expansive primary suite features a walk-in closet, spa-like bath with Jacuzzi tub and separate shower, a charming office nook, and access to the front porch. A second bedroom sits off the hallway, while the third flex bedroom works well as a guest room, den, office or TV room with an included built-in murphy bed. In 2025, the home underwent a thoughtful renovation: the entire condo was painted, hardwood floors were refinished, kitchen cabinets were painted white, and the primary bathroom received a new vanity, new vanity mirrors, and new bathroom fans. The ceiling lighting was also fully updated throughout the home. Major systems and appliances were refreshed as well, including a new furnace and air conditioner (2025), oven, dryer and garbage disposal (2025), and a new washing machine (2023). Additional highlights include in-unit laundry, central air, hardwood floors, front and back outdoor spaces, excellent closet storage and a storage locker in the building's lower level. Mariano's is down the block; beaches, shops, and the CTA Red Line, express buses, and Lake Shore Drive are all nearby. Rental parking options are available. Schedule a showing today!
