The Space

You won’t believe that you’re in Chicago when you see this beautifully renovated 1890’s coach house. Here a quiet tree-lined street and a verdant urban garden welcome you home to Bucktown House. This rental includes both the first and second floor units, so it’s perfect for a large gathering or multiple families. Each 2 bedroom, 1 bath apartment sleeps 5 guests, and there is an interior hallway connecting the two. If you’d like to rent an individual unit, please contact us.

Both suites feature eclectic décor with handpicked designer furnishings. Every aspect of this home has been thoughtfully chosen - from the custom drapes to the cherry wood kitchen cabinets to the luxurious towels and robes in the bathroom. Here are more highlights of the comforts at Bucktown House:

More than 1400 square feet of comfortable, plush living space.

Gourmet kitchens with gas ranges, marble countertops, frost-free refrigerators, microwaves, filtered water systems, and gorgeous glass tiled backsplashes.

Queen-sized beds in the master bedrooms.

Two twin-sized beds with reading lamps in each guest bedroom.

Living rooms feature Carlyle Convertible Sofa Beds.

Luxe marble bathrooms with (MALIN+GOETZ) toiletries.

Beautiful urban garden with outdoor seating and grill.

Guest Access

Once you find your free street parking, you can pick your favorite apartment - upstairs or down. The building is secured with self-locking doors, and you’ll use a punch code to enter the house.

The Neighborhood

Bucktown is not just a peaceful residential enclave; it’s also full of incredible arts, dining and activities. The Bucktown House is within walking distance of Holstein Park and The 606 Bloomingdale Trail, a walking/biking trail surrounded by installation art and creative urban landscaping.

Stroll down Damen Avenue for a shopping experience second only to Michigan Avenue, or for a diverse selection of international cuisine. In the evening you can take in a show at the Gallery Cabaret, the Trap Door Theater, or Gorilla Tango Theater - all within easy walking distance of home.

The surrounding neighborhood has no shortage of dining options, from single-barrel bourbon and pork belly tacos on the outside patio at Big Star to nine-course menus at Schwa, an upscale BYOB. Or if it's nightlife you're after, try Bangers & Lace for a hunting lodge vibe or work your way through the Chop Shop's cocktail program.

And if you tire of the local scene, just take the blue line and in 30 minutes you’ll be near Navy Pier. Bucktown is a locus of Chicago’s beauty, entertainment, and culture - book now to stay in the heart of it all.

**No pets are allowed, especially cats. This includes support cats, service cats and pet cats. The owner has a severe cat allergy and any cat dander in the apartment would cause a major health threat.

Well equipped and cozy apartment for family stay in Bucktown
Excellent property for family visit to Chicago. Jean was extremely helpful and informative. Comfy, eclectic decor and well equipped all around, particularly the kitchen. Close to great little grocery store, about half mile from Bloomingdale Trail, and 1 mile from epicenter of Damen Ave/Milwaukee Ave shopping. Easy Uber to downtown/Loop/Navy Pier.

Enjoyed our stay
Property as advertised - nice neighborhood. 15 minute walk from the blue-line. This worked out well for our family trip with adults and young adults. Wished the bedrooms had had air vents. The bathroom had excellent AC and was freezing but to cool off the bedroom we had to leave our door open for airflow. It would have been nice to have had a fan available. Huge closet in the room with the queen beds, no closet in the bedroom with twins. Nice and clean, beautiful garden area. Would have been nice to know about the free neighborhood pool/hours. Owner checked in with us about an hour before checkout - nice and friendly.
