About Paramour

HomeApartments in ChicagoKenwood Paramour

With its commanding presence along the corner of South Drexel and 49th Street, this building blends a myriad of architectural features: red Chicago brick and sandstone-detailed corners grace the facade, while dual projected semi-circle bay windows draw the eye upward toward the balustrade, flanked by Grecian urns, capping the edifice. A wrought-iron gate enclosing the landscaped estate adds to the distinguished and majestic character of this property.

Ruth Hamilton at Mac Properties is simply AMAZING! She's always willing to listen and assist with any issue presented to her. Her ability to just "Make It Right" speaks volumes, and I'm forever grateful for her. Ruth Thank You for always knowing how to deal with all my crazy (LOL)!!!! Wishing You Continued Blessings Darryl always goes above and beyond when addressing maintenance issue. Every time he’s had come to my apartment to fix something, he’s always courteous and professional. He always takes the time to explain the “WHY” behind each issue. Darryl is an outstanding guy, and my preferred maintenance guy. Thanks for everything Darryl!

Mrs Chandra Lee @Mac Properties is absolutely wonderful. Each time I come to the office on 53rd St., she is always courteous and professional. The fact that she knows my entire family on a first name basis, shows how dedicated she is in her position to make sure that the residents are taken care of.

Property highlights

We compared every listing in the surrounding area to determine which amenities are most common. If a building lacks an amenity that most others in the area have, it is a con. If a building has an amenity most others in the area do not, it is a pro. Similarly, price, schools, and size are calculated relative to the size, price, and distance to schools of the other properties nearby.
