Near North: Sandburg Village one bedroom condo sales

We've spent a lot of time viewing and researching one bedroom condos with our clients in the Sandburg Village development of Near North Community Area.  The location is directly between Old Town nightlife and Gold Coast shopping.  Owners and renters of the Sandburg Terrace buildings also have access to outdoor pools (about $140.00 for a season pass) and tennis courts in the warmer months.

OK, let's take a look at 2014 sales. Around 60 one bedroom units sold across all the Sandburg Village buildings after you strip out all the junior one beds. A closer look at a couple buildings we work in often reveals typical price ranges from $200,000 to $275,000.

1560 N Sandburg Terrace, Chicago IL 60610 (James House) is the largest, newest and nicest (in our opinion) with 520 units. 17 one bedroom units sold in 2014, ranging from $200K for a low floor, no view unit to $273,500K for a high floor east facing unit.

1355 N Sandburg Terrace, Chicago IL 60610 (Dickinson House) is more typical on the Sandburg campus with 243 units. 10 one bedroom units sold in 2014 from $189K to $247K.

The leafy primo location offers a terrific Chicago high-rise lifestyle at a relatively affordable price.  Amenities, views and quick access to several of the city's most venerable neighborhoods can be found in Sandburg Village units. Someone new or old to Chicago can also find a common bound with neighbors in this "campus" environment.
