One bedroom plus den/home office...plus a private balcony...plus an in-unit washer/dryer...plus an additional storage unit...and plus a deeded parking spot. View this before it's gone! Apartment 614 welcomes you with floor-to-ceiling windows and bright blue sky. The unit's layout is supremely advantageous, offering a seamless flow that embraces relaxing as much as it does entertaining. The kitchen is sure to impress with its plentiful, light maple cabinetry, expansive granite countertops, mosaic glass backsplash, under cabinet lighting and newer stainless steel appliances (that include Bosch induction stove, GE oven & microwave, Frigidaire refrigerator and Bosch dishwasher). Serving your guests is effortless, as the kitchen is open to the adjacent, spacious living room. At the end of your evenings, enjoy a quiet glass of wine on the balcony, or you can save that for an early morning cup of Joe. After all, you'll be sleeping soundly in the king-sized bedroom (that also houses fantastic closet space). And feel free to use the den as you see fit, whether as a 'work from home' set up, an exercise room, or perhaps an area to house overnight guests. Completing the picture here is a bathroom in excellent condition, boasting a handsome vanity with beautiful engineered marble countertops and fantastic storage and Whirlpool washer/dryer. Optima Horizons is one of Evanston's premier condo buildings whose amenities include: heated indoor pool, sundeck with gas grills, garage, private storage, fitness room, bike room, community room with kitchen available for private events, onsite manager, and 24 hour doorman on weekends & 7:30am-11:30pm Sunday through Thursday. Located in the heart of the downtown area, you are surrounded by some of the best restaurants and shops as well as being blocks from Lake Michigan and its beaches. Easy access to Northwestern University, the Metra, and the El train. The building is fiscally sound and has never had a special assessment. Not for investors as there is a rental cap that has been met. Pets allowed.
