Our Home For Exchange

Description of the home we are offering for exchange

Our family home will welcome you with all the amenities needed for your Chicago visit. Located in the heart of Little Italy, easy 5 min. walk to restaurants, bars, Starbucks, parks & playgrounds, UIC Pavilion & Medical District. Only 2 blocks to subway (Blue line) which takes you directly downtown to all major attractions including The Art Institute, Millenium Park, Michigan Ave, theatre district, lakefront and so much more. We are only 2.5 miles from the lakefront if you prefer to walk.

Our sunny & bright family-friendly apartment offers plenty of space for you to make the most of your visit to the Windy City. Our kitchen is basic but ready for your cooking needs, should you choose to make your own meals. There is a family room with a comfy couch and a flat screen TV with Netflix & Hulu. There is also plenty of desk space for your laptop or writing needs.

We have tons of games, toys & legos to help entertain any kiddos, as well as lots of family-friendly movies to watch. We also have books galore throughout the apt for adults and kids alike.

The comfortable king bedroom offers a flat screen TV with Netflix. The 2nd bedroom features two bunk beds. The bathroom offers a deep tub for soaking & shower. You will also find a lovely backyard with seating, table & umbrella for all to enjoy on warm summer nights or al-fresco dining.

We own the building and have another apartment that we make available for swaps or Airbnb on the 2nd floor. Please inquire if you have a large party and require additional beds and bath. Here are links to both apartments on Airbnb:
