Old Chicago Brick Craftsman with yard, Near Beach and Loyola! Welcome to this thoughtfully preserved 110 year old, original Chicago brick home, just 3 blocks from the Lake Michigan shoreline. Lots of charm and character in this storied home with a serene backyard oasis in the heart of the city! While this historical gem is the perfect private getaway for you & loved ones, its location makes it easy for you to get around. You are: 1 Block to Sushi, Thai, Coffee, Jamaican, El Train, Loyola, Live Music 15 min to Wrigley 18 min to Michigan Ave/Downtown Every corner of this property has been lovingly cared for to breathe new life into this storied Chicago home while still preserving its history and charm. This craftsman style home features plaster walls, an original nickel mirror on closet door, and a mix of original and period replicated hardware throughout. From the quiet, tree-line street you'll meet a grand, 2 story red brick home with a welcoming wreath on its glass and oak door. Take a journey back in time as you step onto vintage tile floors and head up the ornate wooden stairs under the art deco light fixtures to your second floor abode. Inside, the large foyer opens to the living room which has ample seating. Relax by watching a movie (Apple TV & Netflix provided) or, in the adjoining sun room, enjoy a beverage and peaceful views of the neighborhood. Down the hall, the master bedroom is on the left with two additional bedrooms on the right. Each bedroom has plenty of closet space and a ceiling fan for those that enjoy a little breeze. The hall opens to a grand dining room with expandable table that seats up to 10 so this room can comfortably accommodate just two for a romantic dinner or host a large group for a bustling family meal. Chicago is known for world class restaurants, but sometimes we all need a nice home-cooked meal, right? That's why our kitchen is fully stocked with all the spices & essentials you'll need to prepare a delicious meal of your own, if you choose to. The kitchen also features a pass-through to the dining room with generous bar seating so everyone can interact while meals are prepared. The dining room also opens to a fun sun room with a wall of windows overlooking the trees in the lovely backyard. I recommend sipping a cup of tea and spinning a record while you watch the birds. The comfy couch opens to a full-size pull-out sofa bed. The house is spacious with lots of little areas for family or friends to spend time together or do their own thing. While the home is equipped to host 8 people, we think the perfect group size is 5-6. We're happy to host all 8, but keep in mind it will be a little cozier. \*Please inquire if you have a larger group as we have options to expand for up to 16 guests! ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Day bed ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Tile flooring in public areas - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service ### Location highlights - On a lake ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Unit size: 1,500 square feet ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Contactless check-in available Minimum check-in age: 28 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Check-out instructions The host requires you complete the following before checking out: Return the keys Enjoy your final hours in Chicago and don’t worry about cleaning up.

The place was easy enough to find, with several beds/rooms and some couches. Looked to be a good kitchen but we didn’t use it much. Only downside was there were some ants in the bathroom but it wasn’t that bad. Overall a great place to stay! ##### Blake L. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heather C.

There was enough room for their grandmother to stay as well, and everyone had plenty of space to relax. The communication was excellent as well! We appreciated all the hospitality! ##### Emily W.

But, It's also great just for hanging out in a Chicago neighborhood because it is on residential street and very close to restaurants and the Red Line. The flat itself is very spacious with 3 BRs and multiple living areas to sit in. I would not call it a luxurious but its much better than basic with a fun, quirky, and clean charm plus it is very well stocked with everything we might need. We'll gladly stay there again sometime in the future, especially if additional family members join us. ##### Paul L. Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2022
