About this property

Music-Inspired 2BR Garden Flat in Historic Uptown Near Legendary Music Venues

  • Tucked away on a quiet, tree-lined street in Chicago’s Uptown / Sheridan Park, this beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 1-bath garden apartment blends historic character with a thoughtfully curated, music-inspired design.

    Located in a 1915 historic Uptown brownstone designed by architect Andrew Sandegren—part of a City of Chicago Landmark District—this 1,200-square-foot space offers a private entrance, modern amenities, and a refined mid-century modern aesthetic. Original artwork and subtle musical references reflect the apartment’s close proximity to Chicago’s legendary live-music scene, with the Aragon Ballroom, Riviera Theatre, and the iconic Green Mill all within an easy walk. It’s also within walking distance to other beloved northside neighborhoods, including Andersonville, Lincoln Square, Asia on Argyle, Wrigley Field , and the lakefront.

    The open living area features plush mid-century furnishings, an electric fireplace, and a 70" flat-panel LG TV—perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the city. Music-themed artwork and design details nod to Uptown’s creative legacy, including visual tributes to nearby venues and iconic artists.

    The chef-ready kitchen opens seamlessly to the living space and is fully equipped with quartz waterfall countertops, two-tone cabinetry, dark stainless LG appliances, and a Technivorm Moccamaster coffee maker, with complimentary coffee provided.

    Both bedrooms feature queen-size beds, layered lighting, ceiling fans by Minka Aire, smart plugs, and curated artwork. One bedroom includes a dedicated work nook with monitor and printer, making the space especially appealing for business travelers or longer stays.

    The oversized bathroom includes marble mosaic tile, a Kohler rain shower, a fog-free LED mirror, and even Bluetooth audio via the Broan‑Nutone Sensonic exhaust fan—perfect for music or podcasts while getting ready.

    In-unit laundry with full-size LG washer and dryer, central HVAC with Nest thermostat, and thoughtful extras throughout ensure a comfortable, low-friction stay.

    Original artwork and subtle musical references reflect the apartment’s close proximity to Chicago’s legendary live-music scene, with the Aragon Ballroom, Riviera Theatre, and the iconic Green Mill all within an easy walk.

    If driving or taking Uber/Lyft, travel time is typically 15–20 minutes from downtown and 35–45 minutes from O’Hare outside of rush hour. Free street parking is available. Via public transit, the apartment is an 8-minute walk from the CTA Red Line (Uptown Station) and about a 10-minute walk from the Metra Ravenswood stop, making it easy to reach downtown, Wrigleyville, Evanston, without a car.

    Ideal for up to four guests, this apartment is designed for travelers who appreciate comfort, craftsmanship, and the opportunity to experience a more authentic side of Chicago—beyond the Loop. It’s a great home base for guests who want to explore the city’s North Side with ease while returning to a calm, residential setting

6 stars if I could! Highly recommend!This was by far the nicest/best/hi-end vacation rental. we've ever stayed in, and I've stayed in at least 25 different ones over the years!Absolutely. Immaculate and everything was extremely brand new & high-end. Both bedrooms & living rm had smart TVS. The internet was easily accessible. There's even a computer and printer in the main bedroom.There was lots of different seasonings., there was even coffee for the coffee maker., it takes grind coffee. Bring condiments (ketchup/mayo etc)The owner's mark and Jim are the kindest people you will ever meet... And I've never seen anyone respond back so quick to every single question. And in detail,they are on top of the game!The outdoor back area, there's a barbecue out there and a sitting area.And it's very peaceful.You do not feel like you're surrounded by anything other than you can see a three story building that noThe outdoor back area, there's a barbecue out there and a sitting area, it's very peaceful & well done.There's a nice instruction book with tons of photos and details to answer your every need or you can just contact mark. And he will get back to you fastOnly about ten minutes along lakeshore, drive to get to city center and main tourist destination in 10 minutes on lakeshore drive to get to City center and Main Tourist Destinations.There's a train station about a 12 min. walk away.Rave review!
