This three-bed, two-bath apartment spans two floors connected by a spiral staircase. And across from that staircase in the sunny living room is a fireplace. Talk about fancy! The duplex design efficiently splits the public and living spaces. The rooms aren't terribly huge, but what they lack in space, they make up with charm and nice views from the windows. A home like this in Wicker Park or Lakeview would easily tack on an additional $500 to the monthly rent.
