This spacious fourbedroom, threebathroom E1model townhouse sits on quiet, treelined East 56th Street near the University of Chicago and within walking distance of the Lake Michigan lakefront. The home offers three levels of bright living space and major 2026 updates, including fresh highquality interior paint, all new highend kitchen appliances, a new washer, a new hot water heater, and refurbished kitchen cabinets. All bathrooms have been updated, including the expansion of a former half bath into a full bath. The association provides a private parking lot, a playground, and a new pergola area for barbecues, supported by excellent selfmanagement and a low $100 monthly assessment. The Lab School and Ray School are just a couple of blocks away, adding exceptional convenience for families. With top schools, the University of Chicago, Hyde Park amenities, and the lakefront all close by-and with Chicago among the strongest homeprice growth markets while Hyde Park remains notably undervalued-this rarely available townhouse offers outstanding convenience, stability, and longterm value.
