**Corner end-unit 3-bedroom, 2-bath vintage condo in Oak Park's Lions Gate Condominiums, a 1925 brick courtyard building at Washington Boulevard and Maple Avenue, one block east of Harlem. South- and west-facing windows fill 1,410 square feet with light from morning to evening, framed by coved ceilings, original windows, and hardwood floors. The 23x15 living room opens to a separate 14x11 dining room, and the updated 15x14 kitchen features 42-inch cabinets, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, a breakfast bar, and new stainless steel appliances: refrigerator, gas range, dishwasher, and microwave. The 19x14 primary bedroom leads three large bedrooms, each fitted with a custom California Closets system. One bedroom has an en-suite full bath, and the hall bath offers a soaking tub and a separate shower. Fresh paint, updated lighting, custom blinds, a walk-in closet, central air, gas forced-air heat, and a newer in-unit washer and dryer make this vintage condo move-in ready. Building amenities include a shared covered deck with new exterior stairs, a large private storage unit, and dedicated bike storage, and the entrances and stairwells are being refreshed and repainted. The $490 monthly assessment covers water, common insurance, exterior maintenance, lawn care, scavenger, and snow removal, and pets are welcome. Lions Gate sits 2.5 blocks from Mills Park, with easy access to the Green Line, Blue Line, Metra, I-290, and the restaurants and shops of Lake Street and downtown Oak Park. Village parking permits ($117-$137 per quarter) are available, and monthly parking may be secured from neighboring property owners ($125-$150/month). Big rooms, two exposures, and a vacant home ready for a quick closing: Lions Gate living in Oak Park, IL.
