Live the Evanston Lifestyle-Just Steps from the Lake Nestled within the beautifully landscaped Rookwood Gardens, this charming studio offers an exceptional opportunity to own in one of Evanston's most desirable neighborhoods. Tucked among stunning single-family homes in the heart of the Northwestern University area, you'll enjoy unparalleled convenience with easy access to the CTA and Metra, vibrant shops, restaurants, cafes, D&D Finer Foods, the Evanston Cultural Center, parks, downtown Evanston, and Lake Michigan's beaches and bike paths. Inside, this thoughtfully designed home maximizes space with surprising storage and timeless vintage character. The updated galley kitchen features stainless steel appliances, generous granite countertops, and oak faced cabinetry. Architectural details abound, including 9-foot ceilings, crown molding, picture rail molding, wall sconces, a ceiling fan, and five beautiful casement windows that flood the home with sunshine throughout the day thanks to its sought-after northwest exposure. This pet-friendly landmark building (with board approval) offers convenient on-site Speed Queen laundry, an 8*8 private storage unit, and beautifully renovated garden courtyards that provide a peaceful retreat from city life.

Enjoy the ease of Evanston living, the beauty of the lakefront, and a monthly cost that could be less than what you're paying in rent nearby.
