Fresh to the market is our new property at 2929 N Honore, and we are extremely excited about it! A beautiful 3 Bed / 2 Bath townhome situated in the Landmark Village Townhome community that is nestled between the Roscoe Village and the West Lakeview areas.
Landmark Village was done in several phases, but all of them are highly sought after. The reason? It was a full brick townhome complex, which didn’t always happen. This phase, featured 12 homes that are privately gated unlike the other phases, which provides the most amount of security.
The other unique factor for this property is that it is only one of two units in the complex that actually has a roof top deck. Extremely nice in the summer time! Actually, this home comes with three outdoor spaces, and one is right off the front living room.
My favorite is the warm and inviting living space. It has a wood burning (gas starter) fireplace which is always so cozy. Large windows shed light in from the south and north sides of the unit. The kitchen is updated with white cabinets and gold fixtures.
We Asked Our Sellers…
What made you choose this home over the others when you were looking to buy?
We chose this home over all the others because we not only loved that it had a garage and outdoor spaces, it had THREE outdoor spaces. Compared to other traditional condos we saw, this one felt so homey and compared to other 'townhouse'-like condos we saw, this one felt much more spacious. We loved that the bedrooms were upstairs, away from the living area. Having an extra room with a full bath attached and Murphy bed was another huge factor. When we had out of town guests, they could have their own private suite. The neighborhood is the best of both worlds. You get city living with proximity to tons of great restaurants and bars as well as a family-friendly neighborhood feel.
What are 3 favorite features of your home?
The fireplace is a game changer in the winter. Each year, the HOA organizes a firewood delivery, which we would go in on, and would get enough wood to make a fire almost every night!
We love having the front deck and rooftop deck. The rooftop deck is a perfect oasis in the summer -- it's a great space to lay out and get a suntan during the day, and fun to have some friends over for a drink on a nice summer night. Having a grill on the front deck makes it easy and fun to grill year round - even in the winter - because it's right there!
We recently upgraded to a new washer and dryer and it has made laundry day a little bit less dreadful. :)
Did you entertain others in the home? If so, how was it?
We entertained here all the time! We've had Friendsgivings, Thanksgivings, book clubs, murder mystery parties, tailgates and more. It's a perfect size for a mid-sized group for a dinner party of 6-8 people. For larger group gatherings, we've rearranged the furniture to fit more for a seated dinner or created 'sections' across the main floor, setting people in the living room area, dining area and kitchen counter area. During football season, we'll take the car out of the garage and bring a TV out and invite the neighbors and family over for beer and college football.
What are the best parts of this location?
The best part of this location is that it truly is the best of both worlds - it's in the city, but has a very cozy, quiet, almost suburban-like feel. A few blocks away, there's restaurants, shops and bars and the other direction is Costco and other chain stores like Ulta, Bath & Body Works and more.
What are your favorite local restaurants?
So many to choose from! Sal's Trattoria for Italian, Same Same for Thai on Roscoe and Side Street Saloon for pizza, beer and pool.
What is one hidden gem about the neighborhood?
There is a free outdoor, public pool at Hamlin Park in the summer.
On a really nice day, what is your favorite thing to do in the neighborhood?
Walk over to Cody's Public House with our dog and have a beer! It's dog friendly year-round, but the patio is newly updated.
If you were to describe this neighborhood in three words, what would they be?
Eclectic, family-friendly, quiet
Last words:
All of the neighbors know each other, get along, help each other out and spend time together in the courtyard. The HOA president does so much to keep the outside of the property looking great. We'll definitely miss our neighbors who became friends!
