W Glenlake Ave, West Ridge
$2,200, 3-Bed/2-Bath
Technically, this gorgeous three-bedroom, two-bathroom is barely in Chicago. Practically, though, it’s just about as good of a deal as you’re going to get (if you own a car or don’t mind an hour-long commute, that is). So, what do you get? Well, 2,000 square feet, a fireplace, in-unit laundry and the fantasy kitchen of any at-home chef’s dreams. Oh, and did we mention that the spacious, private terrace is accessible from the master bedroom? This spot is perfect for those who like a little extra space in their abode and have a taste for the truly global cuisine in nearby Rogers Park, Edgewater or Albany Park, Chicago’s epicenter for Middle Eastern food.
