About this home
Experience the perfect blend of historic charm and modern comfort in this exceptional 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo with a loft, located in Fort Sheridan's Tower Barracks West. With views of the parade grounds to the north and a sunlit, south-facing balcony at the back, this home offers both beauty and community connection. Step inside to be wowed by the architectural details: 25-foot peaked ceilings, exposed wooden trusses and beams, and striking exposed brick walls. The spacious living area features a gas log fireplace with an elegant marble surround, perfect for cozy evenings. A versatile loft space provides endless possibilities-a home office, guest area, or reading nook. Start your mornings on the balcony, where you can sip coffee and enjoy the vibrant Fort Sheridan community. Additional conveniences include one heated garage space and a private storage area, both located on the garage level. Easy access to the Metra train, major highways and fine dining. Located steps from the lake, nature trails, and Fort Sheridan's rich history, this condo is more than a home-it's a lifestyle. **Please note, that of the $839 monthly assessment, $291 is a special assessment for the roof. This will be paid off before closing, reducing the monthly assessment to $548.** ***2024 property taxes: $12,306***
