About This Home

This renovated 4-bedroom 2.5-bath home in the desirable Kennicott Place enclave offers immediate, effortless living in one of Hyde Park-South Kenwood's most established and convenient pockets. No deferred maintenance, no to-do list, Unit F is just a beautifully updated single-family residence ready for its next chapter. The heart of the home is an expansive, suburban-inspired kitchen with quartz countertops, ample cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances installed in 2020. Thoughtful, recent enhancements elevate every level: the primary and secondary full and half bathrooms have been completely refreshed (2025 and 2026), complemented by a new fireplace surround and sophisticated second-floor entry tile (both 2026). The exterior was fully painted in 2025. A dedicated new laundry center with integrated folding counter, storage and washer and dryer with extended warranties to 2029 were added in 2025. Mechanical peace of mind includes a roof replacement (2019), upgraded R-49 attic insulation (2021), water heater (2020), and modern heat pump/furnace (2023). New full view storm doors and mailbox (2026 - installed post pics). The property extends outdoors to professionally landscaped front and rear yards, fully refreshed in 2025, providing rare private green space. Parking remains exceptionally convenient with a private driveway and dedicated front space accommodating up to three vehicles. Positioned 1 mile from the University of Chicago campus, you're immersed in the best of Hyde Park and Kenwood: the intellectual vibrancy of the University, proximity to the Metra and lakefront, Washington Park, the boutique shops and acclaimed restaurants of 53rd Street, and the cultural depth that defines this historic South Side neighborhood.
