About this property
Gather Together & WFH in Piece of Chicago History
‘The Wellington’ was created for those looking to gather in a piece of Chicago history. This thoughtfully refurbished 1920s factory is the hidden gem of Lakeview & Roscoe Village - secluded from the hustle, yet a quick walk to world class restaurants, bars & Wrigley Field. Large enough to host families & friends uniting together, yet configured for travelers looking to work from ‘home’ in the heart of The Second City.

Two of the bedrooms are off the main hallway across from one full and one half bathroom. The first bedroom (aka. the green room) has a full-size bunk bed large enough to sleep four. The work station is set up with Zoom in mind - backgrounds are important!
The second bedroom (aka. the blue room) sleeps two with a queen-size bed featuring old school architectural drawings against a modern abstract painted backdrop.
The primary suite is secluded in the back of the unit with a small step up into a private bathroom and spacious bedroom (aka. the black & white room) with his & her closets.

Really enjoyed spending time at the property. Honestly couldn’t find a better place in Chicago to stay.
The hosts were exceptional as well. Answered any questions and the house was exactly as advertised.
Great place and great people.
Beautiful, newly renovated property in a great location
My family and I stayed in this home for a couple of nights and we absolutely loved it. Plenty of space for all of us and updated with cute furniture and nice, modern decor. I loved the exposured brick and the open living room/kitchen/dining area. I highly recommend this house!
Stacy and Elliott were terrific hosts. They were helpful and friendly and answered all my questions immediately. The house is stunning. Beautifully and thoughtfully decorated and equipped and so very clean. I hope to stay there again someday.
The home is beautiful and well located and the hosts are responsive and accommodating.
We would have continued to book this place annually if not for a host misunderstanding surrounding a service dog.
Perfect for our family. All one level so easy to keep track of our kiddos. Adorable playground thats walking distance and great access to restaurants, etc. Our 4yo didnt want to leave! Would recommend having sound machines if you have littles so they arent disturbed by train noise. We always travel with ours so not a problem at all.
Don’t let the exterior for you. The house is located in a beautiful area Lincoln Park. Easy walk to the grocery store. Nice little breakfast restaurant across the street from the grocery store. This area is a beautiful place to take walks. The interior is absolutely gorgeous! The attention to detail is evident and the decor is very nice
and a cool layout. I highly recommend this place and I will definitely be returning.
Amazing hosts and the space is absolutely perfect for family/ friends, wfh, etc. It’s just awesome. The location is great for exploring Chicago, very centrally located, with lots to walk to as well. Can’t recommend highly enough.
We had our annual HS girlfriend get-together in Chicago this year and selected this wonderful place. Perfect for location, spreading out, game playing, privacy and location to everything. Beautiful home! Thank you!
This place is perfectly located to grocery, pharmacy and restaurants. The home is modern, clean and well appointed with everything you’d need to enjoy your stay. The property management was responsive, thoughtful and exceeded expectations. 5 out of 5 would recommend
Stacy and Elliot were amazing hosts and their home is outstanding. The location is unbeatable, the accomodations are fantastic, and the house was impeccably clean. Couldnt ask for a better experience. The only problem is that im afraid if i hype their home too much then it wont be available the next time were in the Windy City! This will always be our first choice when we visit Chicago to see our daughter. Thanks Stacy and Elliot!
“The Wellington” was everything listed and more! It was clean, spacious, and everything we needed for a quick weekend stay! Stacy was a great host! She was always quick to respond to messages and checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed. Can’t wait to rent again soon!
