858 W Newport Ave 3-Flat Apartment Review

This apartment is a 3 flat that has 3 bedrooms per apartment. The apartment unit on the second floor has a lot of characte,r as it was built over 100 years ago, with exposed brick in the kitchen and old-style doors and handles. The entire apartment is very open and has a lot of windows, especially in the front room, which has three large windows as well as a fireplace. There is a second living room where the front door is, which opens up to a hallway and a very large kitchen in the back of the apartment that has room for an island. There is also a back porch with room for a table and chairs, as well as a concrete patio that is gated and leads to the alley.

Two of the three bedrooms are large enough to have queen beds with room for a dresser, but the third room is in the front living room and only has room for a twin bed + dresser or just a queen bed.

Water is included in rent and there is one set of washer/dryers in the basement for the apartment complex. Walls are extremely thin, but overall it's a homey apartment with large living spaces and kitchen.

I'm technically at the intersection of Lakeview, Buena Park, and Wrigleyville so I feel like I get a mix of all three neighborhoods in my day to day. Buena Park is much more family oriented and a bit more affordable, but it is small so finding an apartment there is tricky. Lakeview is very good for young professionals and pets but is definitely pricier. Wrigleyville is even more expensive, but has good nightlife and restaurants. All three are super easy to access transit from and get to the Chicago campus.
I love how convenient the location is. There's a ton of great restaurants really close by, so many bus lines right around the corner or within a 5 minute walk, and Lincoln Park right across the street. My commute downtown is only 15 minutes and there's also a bus available to get to the brown and purple L trains. There's a Mariano's, Trader Joe's, and Target all within 10 minute walking distance so shopping is very convenient. I generally feel really safe walking in this area as the streets are busy and well lit.
Similar crowd (young professionals), close to the lake, parks nearby, safe, accessible grocery stores and shops and restaurants.
Quiet, very residential, mostly families because of the great CPS schools nearby
Lakeview is a great spot for young professionals and those looking for an active social life. The area comes alive in the summer with baseball games and is not far from beaches and great shopping and eating areas.
Lakeview has plenty of beautiful, tree-lined neighborhoods and a robust bar and restaurant scene. It is a destination neighborhood with tons of boutiques, Wrigley Field, and a welcoming environment. I chose to live here because I am gay and wanted to have very easy, direct access to the lakefront path for running and biking.
The main reason we moved here was the neighborhood. Broadway, Clark, Diversey and Belmont are all within walking distance and offer all of the shops, restaurants, bars and grocery stores you could need. It really is in a prime, unbeatable location. Not to mention it's a block from Lake Michigan and walking distance to Lincoln Park and a short bike ride from Montrose Beach.
My street and neighborhood are usually fairly quiet. Sundays seem to be the going out day in the neighborhood but it isn't disruptive to my every day life. Overall it seems like a very safe area and being a young woman living alone, that is very important. Would definitely recommend to friends and family.
