Renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo in River Forest with a rare shared garage space - a standout feature in this vintage brick building steps from North Avenue shops and restaurants, directly across from Fresh Thyme. Inside, 785 square feet of freshly painted, move-in ready living space greet you with light engineered flooring throughout the open living and dining areas. The living room spans 14'2" x 15'10", flowing into an 11'6" x 8'11" dining area and a beautiful galley kitchen outfitted with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a high-end gas range. The primary bedroom offers 11'1" x 14'4" of space, while the second bedroom measures 10'8" x 8'7" - both served by a full bath with a pedestal sink, tiled tub-shower combo, and vintage tilework that adds character throughout. Additional perks include a coin-operated laundry, a utility sink, and extra storage in the basement. Ceiling fans in the kitchen and dining area add everyday comfort. Set in a classic courtyard brick building with mature landscaping and a welcoming shared entry, this River Forest condo puts you within easy reach of North Avenue's shops and restaurants, Fresh Thyme, and everything that makes River Forest a sought-after community. Comfortable, updated, and ready for its next owner - this River Forest gem won't last long.
