This two-bed, one-bath apartment occupies a charming brick building's ground floor and is close to the hustle and bustle of Ashland Avenue and Clark Street. The place sports gleaming hardwood floors and an abundance of natural light that give it a pleasant, comfy air. Dark wood cabinets in the kitchen, which also boasts contemporary stainless steel appliances, nicely offset this. Each of the rooms are fairly spacious and the unit has both front and rear entrances, which makes coming and going a breeze.
Let's be honest here, a lot of the apartments in Ravenswood are pretty much variations on the same theme—some hardwood floors, a few bedrooms, a decent-sized living room—and not a whole lot else. It's the little things that count when you're on the hunt though. Whether it's being close to one of the three trains that run through or near the neighborhood or something as simple as in-unit laundry, each of these cheap apartments have their quirks that make them worth signing a lease.
