Sales open, work begins on Lakeview condos
Sales and construction are under way for 3255 North Paulina, a new nine-unit condominium development in the Lakeview neighborhood on the Chicago's North Side.
The four-story condominium, being developed by JML Builders, will feature contemporary architecture with plenty of windows, dark and light brick and recessed balconies for every unit. The elevator building also features a common-area rooftop deck with sweeping city views.
With three units per floor, the development at the corner of Paulina and School streets, features a well-planned design for each residence, emphasizing the exceptionally wide open space of the living and dining room, said Charles Huzenis, president of Jameson Realty Group, the exclusive marketing agent for 3255 North Paulina.
"Each condo features wide-planked, chocolate-stained oak floor and sweeping custom commercial-size windows to bring plenty of light into the unit," Huzenis said.
The 3255 North Paulina condominium features two-bedroom or two-bedroom-plus-den/loft floor plans with two baths. Also featured are three penthouses with 23-foot-tall duplex living rooms.
Base prices range from $619,900 to $769,900.
"One of the best things about these condos is that indoor heated parking is included in the purchase price," Huzenis said.
Standard amenities include an Italian-styled kitchen with a clean, contemporary flair with custom dark mahogany cabinetry, stone countertops and tile backsplash and a stainless-steel appliance package.
The master bath has an oversized shower, whirlpool, a flat panel mahogany dual vanity, stone-tile flooring and countertops plus a frameless glass shower enclosure.
One of the most popular layouts is Plan 4A, a two-bedroom condominium with a duplex den/loft area that includes two balconies and a private roof deck.
Visitors enter into the residence and step into a foyer. Immediately to the left is a 12-by-10-foot kitchen which opens to a 24-by-23-foot lofted living/dining room. The room has access to a 24-foot-long balcony.
A living room staircase leads up to the den/loft, just above the living/dining room. Just to the right of the foyer and immediately ahead is a secondary bedroom with access to a full bath.
Down the hall is the master bedroom with walk-in closet and large master bath. The master bedroom also has access to the second 15-foot-long balcony.
Huzenis said the two biggest reasons people want to live in Lakeview are the public transportation lines and the close access to the lake. "A lot of neighborhoods have one or the other -- not both," he said. "So, that makes Lakeview special. Plus, you have great restaurants and a terrific shopping environment."
An open house is held at 3255 N. Paulina from 1 to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday. For more information, call Jameson Realty Group at (312) 751-0300 or visit www.jameson.com.
