Lakeview Penthouse - Furnished 2br 2ba - internet, tv, utilities, and parking included! - Academic Year Lease

Spacious and airy penthouse apartment with stunning views of Lake Michigan and Lincoln Park. 1750 sq ft, fully furnished, 2br, 2 bath, utilities included, and available for 2018-19 academic year. Indoor valet parking also included! A perfect place for sabbaticals, extended corporate stays, or grad students!

The apartment will be home for me and my family during the summer when I am performing as Concertmaster with the Grant Park Symphony Orchestra. My father, Robert Black, lives locally and will be handling the lease and any issues that may come up during the year.

Right on Lake Michigan, on the border of Lincoln Park and Lake View, the location is terrific, close to restaurants, groceries, the CTA (bus and red/purple/brown lines), night life, the Lincoln Park Zoo and the Lake Michigan. (The Walk Score is 88/100 www.walkscore.com).

Need to get downtown? About 35 minutes door-to-door by train or bike, less by car, even in rush hour traffic.

Everything is included in the price - Netflix/Roku and cable TV, heat, A/C, water, electric, nationwide phone, wireless internet, wireless all-in-one printer/scanner/fax, and a 40" LCD TV. Personal washer and dryer are in the building. Bring your suitcases!

New carpets and refrigerator installed in 2017 & *NO SECURITY DEPOSIT!*

Fabulous apartment in the midst of everything good about Chicago! Walk to Lincoln Park and Lakefront, myriad of restaurants, bars, and coffee shops--and if you can't walk, the bus on the corner gets you everywhere you need to be! Robert Black is extremely responsive to any question or concern and the building engineer and staff do all the rest. This apartment gets 5 Stars in my book; if I hadn't bought my own place in Chicago, I'd gladly rent this apartment again! Excellent Elaine Seeskin 4/24/2018 10:43:00 AM
My wife and I just spent six months with our three sons in the apartment. It was a perfect place for us. The apartment is well kept and it contained everything we needed. The location is fantastic. The beautiful Oz Park is but a few yards away and it is only a short walk to Lincoln Park and the zoo. Restaurants, bars and shops are all around the corner, yet it is still a quiet place. The landlord was very nice and helpful. He promptly responded to our calls or e-mails. If we had a problem - and there were very few - he took care of it immediately. We can wholeheartedly recommend the place. Excellent Ralf Neukirch 7/8/2015 1:08:00 PM
My husband and I really enjoyed the year we spent in Chicago in this condo; we were here September through early June. The location is ideal: very close to public transportation and DePaul University. Quiet, residential block, and both the unit and building are very clean and secure.

Owners were extremely accommodating and responsive throughout our stay. If we return to Chicago in the future, we would not hesitate to stay here again! Highly recommended!

Me and my daughter spent a great year in Chicago. We loved to stay in Jeremy's apartment, a very nice place in a beautiful neighborhood. It is easy to get downtown by trains and buses. The apartment is in walking distance to the beach and to Lincoln Park Zoo. Excellent Martin Eybl 6/10/2012 6:46:00 PM
This apartment is located in the heart of Lincoln Park, perfectly located close to Lake and Zoo. Oz Park is just around the corner and there is no commuting traffic in the street. It offers very easy access to public transportation including CTA trains and busses.

This light and friendly apartment is on the 2nd floor of a 5 story building and offers large 2 bed/ 2 bath rooms, lots of closet storage space, a private balcony with a barbecue, high speed internet, cable TV, on site laundry facilities, bicycle storage, and a separate parking lot.

Anything you need for daily living like supermarkets, convenience stores, cafes, etc. is only 5 min away. This is a perfect spot for those who know Chicago and look for a fast and convenient commute as well as for those who don’t and would like to explore it. I enjoyed every day of my seven month in Chicago.
