About this property

The Monroe House - Just blocks from the CTA and 20 minutes from downtown

This newly remodeled space is an elegant retreat featuring 10 foot ceilings, local art treasures and plush linens. Our location in the Madison Street Shopping/Dining District puts you within steps of acclaimed restaurants and pubs, unique boutiques, and minutes from downtown Chicago and the United Center. Two blocks from the train to downtown, it's the perfect space for entire families, couples, adventurers and business travelers!

The apartment is a charming unit in a two unit historic home built in 1912. It combines historic details with modern conveniences such as central heat and air, a dishwasher and washing machine and dryer access. The Monroe House is a stone’s throw from historic Oak Park and just three blocks from the CTA Blue Line making downtown Chicago a 30 minute train ride away.
