This bright one-bedroom, one-bath apartment in the heart of Lake View has been freshly renovated from top to bottom. Light wood-look plank flooring runs through every room, paired with white trim and crown molding that gives the whole space a crisp, finished feel. The living room is the standout: a three-window bay pulls in natural light from morning to evening, and a ceiling fan keeps the air moving through the warmer months. Off the living room, a double closet by the front door adds welcome storage for coats and everyday gear, and the bedroom continues the same bright, neutral palette with its own closet and a large window.
The galley kitchen has been fully updated with white shaker cabinets, a black quartz-look countertop, and a full white subway tile backsplash that runs up to the upper cabinets. Stainless steel appliances include a gas range with a built-in microwave hood, a full-size refrigerator, and a dishwasher, plus a Haier washer and dryer combo tucked into the cabinet run so laundry never means leaving the unit. The bathroom pairs a dark wood vanity with a white countertop against more white subway tile lining the shower and tub surround, finished with a tile floor and chrome fixtures throughout. Between the updated kitchen, the renovated bath, and the closet space in both the living room and bedroom, this unit is ready to move into without a single compromise.

Transit & Commute
The Broadway & Roscoe bus stop is right outside the building, about a 2-minute walk, and it puts four routes within reach from one corner: the 8 Halsted runs south through Lincoln Park and the Near North Side, the 36 Broadway heads downtown to LaSalle Street Station, the 77 Belmont connects east to the lakefront and west toward the Belmont L stop, and the 146 Inner Lake Shore/Michigan Express runs a direct, limited-stop ride down Lake Shore Drive to Michigan Avenue and the Museum Campus, roughly every 30 minutes through the day.
For rail, the Belmont station at 945 West Belmont Avenue is about a 12-minute walk and puts three L lines on one platform: the Red Line runs 24/7 with trains every 3-10 minutes at rush hour (up to every 15 minutes overnight) toward the Loop and 95th/Dan Ryan, the Brown Line runs toward the Loop and Kimball roughly every few minutes during the day, and the Purple Line Express adds a faster weekday rush-hour run straight to the Loop.
What’s Nearby
Wendt Playlot Park sits right on Roscoe Street, about a 2-minute walk, a renovated neighborhood playground and green space for a quick outdoor break without leaving the block. A Starbucks at 3358 North Broadway is about the same distance for a daily coffee run, and the Merlo branch of the Chicago Public Library at 644 West Belmont Avenue is roughly a 6-minute walk, with a full collection, public computers, and community programming.
For the weekly shop, a Mariano's full-size grocery store at 3030 North Broadway is about a 12-minute walk, covering groceries, a pharmacy counter, and prepared foods in one stop. The same stretch of Broadway carries a mix of everyday restaurants and shops, making it an easy walk to combine errands with a meal out.

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.
