Description

First time on the market in 50 years! This impeccably maintained vintage gem must be seen in person to be truly appreciated! Spanning nearly 3300 square feet spread across two levels; this condo lives like a single family in an intimate 3-unit building (previously the Swiss Embassy!) at the heart of the Hutchinson/Hazel Historic District in Buena Park. Properties of this nature & stature rarely come on the market and this home is ready for new owners that will truly value its charm and character! With the building situated on a jumbo 51'x 190' lot; the main level is an extra wide 2500+ square feet and welcomes you with hardwood floors, 9' ornate carved plaster ceilings, along with gorgeous & detailed millwork throughout. It hosts a well-laid floor plan that includes a formal living room with gas fireplace, open foyer, an expansive dining room, spacious kitchen w/ butler's pantry and 3 very generously sized bedrooms + a 4th room w/ ensuite full bath that is currently utilized as an office. The primary bedroom offers a substantial sleeping area along with a sitting room, walk-in closet, and private bath with step-in shower. In addition, enjoy views of the treelined street from your exclusive sunroom poised at the front of the building. A 3rd full bath completes the main level. The street level lower level offers 750 sq ft of supplementary entertainment space, including a full wet bar, recreation area, bathroom, and laundry. Exiting through the lower level you'll find common area space and a private storage room so large (19'x7') that it will impress even the most discerning buyer. Additional features include central air, a private enclosed back porch, a spacious (recently refinished) deck accessed only from your unit, and an enclosed 1-car garage space behind a gated side drive. In fall 2023 the seller upgraded the unit's entire electrical system and replaced 16 windows and sliders. (All windows/sliders are now double paned replacement windows installed within the last 5-6 years). The building itself shows pride of ownership which includes the recent installation of two new boilers, refinishing of decks, and painting of the common area foyer. Significant roof & tuckpointing work completed in 2021. This incredible Buena Park location offers everything you could ask for in a centralized city location! A plethora of public transit options await nearby including the CTA 146 and 148 express buses along with the Sheridan Redline stop. Jewel, Target, Aldi, & fantastic restaurants like The Reservoir are all within just a few blocks! You'll find easy access to the lakefront bike path and beach access 2 blocks away at the Buena Avenue underpass. Lake Shore Drive is just a few minutes away and it's only a 10-minute drive to Michigan Avenue and a 4 minute drive to the desirable Walt Disney Magnet School!
