In reply to Gayle.

“I think I’ve seen these lofts. What’s strange about them is that there is one bedroom but not bath on the main floor, then one bed and bath upstairs.”

Gayle, that’s the other floor plan that is in the building. This loft is all on one level.

I think I’ve seen these lofts. What’s strange about them is that there is one bedroom but not bath on the main floor, then one bed and bath upstairs. So if the person in the main floor bedroom needs the bathroom they have to go all the way upstairs in the middle of the night…no thanks.

I would rather live a little further northwest and get a single family home.

Looks like this is contingent.

I like this place and almost considered touring it but the assessments are a bit too high for what you get (hopefully it’s to pad the HOA reserves). The walk to the red line and metra stop are just a bit too far for my taste. I lived on Hermitage ave not too far north of here and the 18 minute walk to the red line was brutal in the winter. Renting it would be one thing, but I would regret having bought a place with an inconvenience like that after a long time and always wish I had bought closer.
