    * Fabulous well stocked chef's kitchen

    * Extra large dining table - Our dining area actually sits as many (or more) than the home sleeps

    Located at the crossroads of Lincoln Park - Old Town & River North - Old Town Chicago, Mag Mile, Fulton Market, Wicker Park & Wrigleyville are all just minutes away - without any of the urban noise and congestion.

    In short, being just 2 blocks from the Red Line train, with easy access to three bus routes (one of which stops right out in front of the building) and the Kennedy and Lake Shore Drive Expressways, there is nowhere you can't get to in pretty much a straight shot.



    We're 3 minutes from the North/Clybourn Red line and around the corner from the #8 Halsted bus.



    Please note the frontline rate shown on some listing sites is for our minimum number of guests and may not include EXTRA guest fees or taxes or the housekeeping fee. Your final quote will include those totals.



    We are always there for you!! Communication prior to arrival and trhough check-out will be via a private WhatsApp chat group that we setup for your group. For larger non-family groups, we request everyone be added to it - this avoids issues with arrival, check-in and offers you immediate responses from our team during your stay. This ensures a great stay!



    If you're heading to Chicago and looking to be near downtown but want a more neighborhood experience with friendly, knowledgeable transcontinental hosts, our amazing, bright and sunny 1800 square foot loft just might be the perfect fit for you.

What a bright and open space! The property is well kept and feels like a home not like just a weekend rental. The owners were very accommodating and lovely. The layout is nice and the kitchen was well stocked. There is a bus stop just steps away from the door. I would definitely recommend this as a base when visiting Chicago.

Family Reunion

This property was perfect for our family reunion. Carole and Basil were very helpful and checked in with us to make sure all was going well. The living space was just as described. It is a lovely kitchen and living area with wonderful artwork and amenities. It was very nice that Carole arranged a wheelchair for my dad at no extra charge. Definitely recommend this property.

Magic Indeed

I’ve been a VRBO member for over two decades and this is in my top two properties of all time. The apartment is spacious, beautifully appointed and perfectly laid out for a large family gathering. The decoration throughout the space is fun and thoughtful and incredibly eclectic. The location is perfect for anyone who wants to be in the action but have a little solitude at the end Of the day. Better shopping and dining than Michigan Ave. without the traffic and crowds. And on top of all this goodness, by far the clearest and most consistent communication I’ve EVER experienced in vacation rentals. We can’t wait to come back!

Girl Weekend

Carole and Basil’s apartment is beautiful, spacious and in a lovely neighborhood. 7 ladies were visiting Chicago for a bday celebration and had a wonderful time. The apartment was the perfect size for our group. Had a few communication issues I think due to the company that the owner sets their booking up through and seemed to miss some emails back and forth. But Carole did share a lot of information about the area and had some nice recommendations. Would absolutely recommend

The condo was great for our family of five. Basil saved us a parking spot on the morning of our arrival in front of the condo. Being a short walk to the subway allowed us to not move the car until we departed. They were able to accommodate our 2:00 arrival. The place was in great condition and would stay there again.

My husband and I, along with other friends, recently stayed at the Magic Factory Lofts and we absolutely loved it. The apartment is beautiful and was very clean. The space is huge with a chef's kitchen to die for!! The bedrooms were also very nice and we loved having a washer & dryer available, as well. The balcony was a great addition and we enjoyed sitting out there in the mornings and evenings. Even though there are others staying in apartments on the same floor and other floors, the building was very quiet. We really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely recommend these rentals to anyone. Thank you so much!

Location is excellent being only a 3 block walk from the red line-no need for a car. Space was great for our group to enjoy lounging in the mornings. Kitchen is fully equipped. This is the first rental I’ve seen with so many hooks throughout to hang things up. Communication was great and ease of coming and going without the use of keys was made simple. Highly recommend for groups.

Check in and property information were given after booking to make our group check in a breeze. Fun location with a bit of walking to access the public metro system (the L). Plenty of space and the kitchen size made it easy for our two families to have space.

Was exactly as advertised. Hosts were very gracious and happy to help with anything you may need. Myself and three of my friends stayed here to attend concerts at The Salt Shed. Was only a mile from the venue so we were able to walk to and from the show.
