Description

Wake up to sunshine and read, study, or work in this calming, light-filled 2 bedroom furnished condo. Walk up the street one way to the shops on Central Street for a coffee or a meal. Or, walk the other way to stroll to Northwestern's campus and take in views of the city from the beaches of Lake Michigan, less than a mile away. Don't feel like walking? The El train or 201 bus (2 blocks) or Metra (4 blocks) can have you to campus, downtown Evanston in minutes, or downtown Chicago in 25. You can be on campus via bike in 6 minutes or if you're an NU student/faculty, hop on the free NU shuttle which stops right across the street from the unit. Catch a game at Ryan Stadium across the street, a concert at SPACE in downtown Evanston, or explore any number of things both Evanston and Chicago have to offer easily. Come back from your day out working, studying, or exploring to this clean, well-maintained building that's primarily a mix of quiet, respectful owners, professionals, grad students/post docs/visiting faculty, and hospital employees/residents. Think wine nights and dinner parties vs ever dealing with noise complaints and parties. Owned by a former NU grad who grew up around Evanston, spent countless hours in NU music practice rooms before going the route of academia and then later business , and loves to help people get to know the area.
