Own a piece of history at this iconic landmarked building in beautiful South Shore. Known affectionately as the "Muse House", this property has the unique distinction of having its original furnishings featured in the Smithsonian National Museum of African American History and Culture. Upon arriving at South Shore Villa you are greeted with the breathtaking opulence of its architecture and the baroque details of the building's long hallways and unique doorways which are a testament to the golden era of Chicago architecture. The unit is bathed in natural sunlight and offers an extremely functional floor plan that separates living and dining spaces along with 2 generous size bedrooms. This spacious unit could easily be converted into a 3 bedroom home. Not to be overlooked is the large kitchen and the added premium of in-unit laundry. The home maintains its historic character and its original hardwood floors are intact as well as the beautiful moldings on the walls and baseboards. The main bathroom was recently updated and the views throughout the unit are spectacular offering lake, park and golf course settings. The monthly assessment includes heat and water. The association is extremely well run and has strong financial reserves. Enjoy an enviable proximity to the lakefront, South Shore Beach, nature sanctuary and the iconic cultural center just steps from your front door! Convenient transportation options offer easy access to neighboring Hyde Park, The University of Chicago and the exciting new Obama Presidential Center which is a half billion dollar new development set to transform the area!
