Property Description

Nestled on one of Lincoln Park's most picturesque, tree-lined blocks, directly across from the storybook charm of Oz Park, 2208 N Burling Street is available for the first time in more than thirty years. This four-bedroom, two-bath townhome blends the character of its classic Chicago setting with thoughtful modern updates, creating a home that feels both timeless and refreshingly current. Inside, newly installed hardwood floors lead you through an open, inviting layout where the living room, dining area, and kitchen flow seamlessly together. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the space, adding warmth and comfort, while sliding glass doors open to a lush private garden patio-a rare urban retreat perfect for relaxing, grilling, or dining al fresco beneath the trees. The kitchen has been remodeled with sleek new cabinetry, stone counters and backsplash, modern appliances, and ample counter space designed for both everyday living and entertaining. One level up, two light-filled bedrooms with floor-to-near-ceiling windows overlook the leafy surroundings of Burling Street, offering a serene connection to nature. This floor also includes a recently updated bathroom and the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer. The upper-level features two additional bedrooms, including the primary bedroom-a bright, private haven adjacent to a newly renovated bath with a walk-in shower. A flexible fourth bedroom or home office shares this floor, ideal for guests or quiet workdays. The home includes central air conditioning, a dedicated parking space, and a layout designed for comfort and practicality. But what truly sets this property apart is its unbeatable walkability. From your front door, nearly everything Lincoln Park offers is just steps away-Oz Park with its gardens, playground, tennis and basketball courts, pickleball, and renowned dog park; the lively mix of neighborhood cafes, restaurants, and boutiques; theaters, movie houses, and cultural attractions; and DePaul University's beautiful campus just down the street. The popular farmers market is an easy stroll from home. The property lies within the Alcott School District and is also within walking distance of Lincoln Park High School, Francis Parker, Latin, and the British School. For commuters, access to the 'L,' Halsted, and Clark Street bus lines is close and convenient, with Chicago's lakefront trails just minutes away. Warm, welcoming, and ideally situated, this residence captures the essence of Lincoln Park living-combining the tranquility of a tree-lined neighborhood with the ease and vibrancy of city life just beyond your doorstep. Rarely does a home like this become available; it's a special opportunity to make one of Chicago's most walkable and beloved streets your own.
