Property Description
Welcome to your new tranquil home at 5300 S. Shore Drive, Unit 59, where history meets modern comfort. Located in the iconic Hampton House, formerly the bustling Hyde Park Hotel and once home to the legendary Harold Washington, this condo offers a unique slice of Chicago's heritage in the vibrant Hyde Park neighborhood. Step into this sunlit 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom condo, offering a thoughtfully updated living space. With northeastern exposures, you'll enjoy stunning views of the lake and the tennis courts at Harold Washington Park-a perfect backdrop for your daily life. In 2024, the entire condo underwent a comprehensive renovation, blending historical charm with modern design. The kitchen was opened to the dining area and now features Taj Mahal quartz countertops and high-end stainless steel appliances, including an LG Eco Dishwasher and a 42-bottle wine cooler. The original natural stone flooring in the foyer and kitchen pays homage to the building's early 1900s hotel days, while the original wallpaper in the foyer adds a charming touch of nostalgia. Beautiful hardwood floors flow through the living and dining areas, and the bedrooms have been upgraded with new engineered hardwood flooring that includes sound dampening for added comfort. Both bedrooms come with an ensuite bathroom for ultimate privacy. The primary bathroom offers a spa-like experience with a custom waterfall shower and new vanity. The second bedroom is adorned with elegant oriental wallpaper and features a bathroom with porcelain tile and refurbished original shower pieces. This home stands out with its whole house water purification system, ensuring filtered water at every faucet, and modern safety features such as a satellite and Bluetooth smoke and carbon monoxide detector for peace of mind. Hampton House provides residents with a 24-hour doorman, common outdoor space, an elevator, a bike room, and convenient laundry facilities in the building. Plus, it's pet-friendly, so your furry companions are welcome too! Situated directly off Lake Shore Drive, you'll have easy access to the Hyde Park beaches and the scenic Lakeshore Trail. Explore the vibrant 53rd Street shopping and dining scene, and enjoy your morning coffee at the cozy Sip & Savor right at your doorstep. Living here places you in the heart of cultural and educational landmarks. The esteemed University of Chicago is nearby, offering a wealth of academic and cultural resources. Spend the day exploring the Museum of Science and Industry, one of the largest science museums in the world, or look forward to the upcoming Barack Obama Presidential Museum, set to be a significant cultural addition to the area. Additionally, the University of Chicago Lab School is within reach, adding to the neighborhood's rich educational landscape. This is more than just a home; it's a lifestyle. Come and experience the perfect blend of history, comfort, and modern living at Hampton House.
