This two bedroom, one bath in Lake View pairs an easy, open layout with genuinely updated finishes throughout. The kitchen runs along an L shaped counter in quartz, backed by a gray tile backsplash with a contrasting accent band, and holds a full stainless appliance suite: a gas range with a built in oven, an over the range microwave, a full size dishwasher, and a stainless refrigerator, with a dedicated in unit washer and dryer tucked into the adjoining utility nook so laundry never means a trip downstairs. Cabinet space is generous on both sides of the kitchen, with a deep corner run and additional storage above the counters, and the layout keeps the cooking area open to the rest of the apartment rather than closed off. The living room is comfortably sized with room for a full sectional and a separate work or dining area, warm wood look flooring underfoot, and a ceiling fan overhead for airflow through the warmer months.
Both bedrooms are true separate rooms rather than a converted flex space, one sized for a queen bed with a window air conditioning unit already in place, the other bright with natural light and its own reach in closet with hanging rod and shelf. The bathroom has been refreshed with a subway tile tub surround featuring a contrasting tile band, a wood toned vanity with updated fixtures, and a mirrored medicine cabinet for extra storage. Windows throughout the unit bring in strong natural light, and the finishes carry the same updated, move in ready feel from the entry hallway through to the bedrooms.

Transit & Commute
The Wellington Brown and Purple Line station at 945 West Wellington Avenue is about a 3-minute walk from this address, putting the L within a couple of blocks. From Wellington, Brown Line trains run toward the Loop every 3-10 minutes during rush hour (up to every 15 minutes at night), making seven stops, including Fullerton, Sedgwick, and the Merchandise Mart, before reaching the Loop stations at Washington/Wells and Clark/Lake. Purple Line Express trains also serve Wellington on weekday rush hours for an even faster ride downtown.
For bus service, the 77 Belmont route runs along Belmont Avenue a short walk south, connecting east to Lake Shore Drive and west to the Belmont Red, Brown, and Purple Line hub at Belmont and Sheffield, useful for reaching destinations off the Brown Line or catching an express Red Line train. Drivers have quick access to Lake Shore Drive via Belmont Avenue, a few minutes east by car.
What’s Nearby
Mariano's, the full-size grocery store and pharmacy anchoring the retail center at Broadway and Wellington, is about a 10-minute walk, with a bakery, sushi counter, and wood-fired pizza oven alongside the everyday grocery run. Coffee and a fresh pastry are even closer: a café sits right at the Wellington Brown Line stop, a couple of minutes from the building, good for grabbing something on the way to the train.
For green space, South Lakeview Park at Lakewood Avenue and Wolfram Street is about an 8-minute walk, with a playground, basketball standards, and a volleyball court. The Merlo branch of the Chicago Public Library at 644 West Belmont Avenue is roughly an 11-minute walk for books, computer access, and community programs. Wrigley Field and the additional bars, live theaters, and music venues clustered around Clark and Belmont round out the neighborhood's recreation and entertainment options, all reachable on foot.

Lake View
Lake View is one of Chicago's largest and most storied North Side neighborhoods, stretching from the lakefront to Ravenswood Avenue, its identity shifting block by block rather than settling on one note. It began as a lakeside village of summer cottages and a single lakefront hotel before Chicago annexed it in 1889, and that resort-town DNA still shows in the tree-lined streets, classic greystones, and brick two-flats that carry through its many pockets. Wrigleyville rallies around Wrigley Field and the Cubs' century-old home, filling with rooftop energy on every game day; the Southport Corridor turns quieter and more boutique, its cafes and storefronts drawing a date-night crowd; and Northalsted, long the historic heart of Chicago's LGBTQ+ community, hosts the city's Pride Parade every June. Threading it all together is the lakefront itself, with the Chicago Lakefront Trail and Belmont Harbor a short walk from almost any address here. It's a neighborhood built for walking: independent boutiques, award-winning restaurants, and corner cafes line Broadway, Southport, and Belmont, and the Belmont and Addison 'L' stops keep the whole area, and the rest of the city, within easy reach.
Lakefront & Trail
Belmont Harbor & the Lakefront Trail
Belmont Harbor anchors Lake View's stretch of the Chicago Lakefront Trail, where a wide paved path runs along the water's edge past hundreds of moored sailboats on their way out to Lake Michigan. Underpasses at Belmont and Wellington carry you beneath Lake Shore Drive without ever crossing traffic, opening onto green lakefront lawns, a boat launch, and miles of running and biking path in both directions. The harbor is free, open around the clock, and busy with joggers and cyclists from the first warm morning of spring through the last fall evenings. It is the neighborhood's front door to the lake, a five-minute walk that turns an ordinary morning run into a view of open water and sailboats at anchor.
Wrigley Field has stood at 1060 W. Addison St. since 1914, making it the second-oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball and the beating heart of the neighborhood that grew up around it. Its ivy-covered outfield walls, the hand-turned scoreboard, and the red marquee at Clark and Addison are as much Chicago icons as the team itself, and on game days the streets around it fill with fans, rooftop bars, and the unmistakable energy of a sellout crowd. The Cubs open their home schedule every spring and play into the fall, and living a short walk from the ballpark means a Tuesday night game can be a spur-of-the-moment plan rather than an outing you drive across town for.
Open since August 1929, the Music Box Theatre is Chicago's beloved home for independent, foreign, and classic film, screening a lineup that runs from new arthouse releases to cult favorites under its ornate, star-painted ceiling. It's the only theater in the city that regularly accompanies silent films with a live theater organ, a tradition running since the early 1980s that turns an ordinary movie night into something you won't find anywhere else. The theater's tall neon marquee has lit up Southport Avenue for nearly a century, and its single-screen main auditorium still seats audiences the way it did on opening night. A few minutes from home, it's the kind of neighborhood cinema most people only read about.
Set behind an ornate terra cotta facade at 2828 N. Clark St., Landmark's Century Centre Cinema is Lake View's go-to for independent and foreign-language film, with seven screens covering everything from awards-season contenders to festival favorites that never make it to the big multiplexes. A full renovation brought reserved stadium seating and reclining screening-lounge chairs, so a weeknight showing feels like an occasion rather than an errand. Tucked into the Century shopping center along Clark Street, it sits a short walk from Lake View's restaurants and bars, making it an easy anchor for a full night out without ever needing a car.
