Property Description

Welcome to 609 W Stratford, a beautifully maintained, boutique, pre-war elevator building in the heart of East Lakeview. This spacious 3-bedroom home blends vintage character with thoughtful updates, features elevator access to a semi-private landing shared with just one neighbor, and is extremely easy and affordable to maintain. The renovated kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining with a large island, beverage and wine fridge, deep custom cabinetry, new LG refrigerator (2025), Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, quartz countertops, and an open layout that flows seamlessly into the living room and dedicated dining room. The expansive living room features a stunning original stone decorative fireplace with an electric insert, crown molding, tray ceilings with dimmable lighting, and beautiful windows with deep sills that provide abundant natural light. Offering one of the most unique and open layouts in the building, the home also includes an oversized primary suite with en-suite bath and walk-in closet, while the second bedroom and bath function as a true second suite with marble floors, classic subway tile, and plenty of closet space. A flexible den or third bedroom, along with a gallery hallway ideal for a home office nook, adds versatility. Additional highlights include a cedar coat closet, hardwood floors throughout, water, gas, trash and sewer paid through the HOA, and through-the-wall AC Units in the main living area and main bedroom (Bedroom unit replaced in 2025). The professionally managed and pet-friendly building offers a newly completed community room, a free and well-maintained shared laundry room, large private storage, bike room, beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces, common patio for gatherings, modern entry system, and complimentary trash removal service just outside the unit. Leased parking is available next door and has been transferred between new owners of this unit, though not guaranteed, along with ample additional free street parking and rental parking options in the neighborhood. Unbeatable location just steps to the lakefront, parks, Belmont Harbor, dog beach, grocery stores, gyms, dining, Wrigley Field, and public transit (including Lakeshore Express busses for quick commutes into the Loop), all within the sought-after Nettlehorst School District and surrounded by an endless array of restaurants and nightlife in this highly walkable neighborhood.
