Celebrating 35 years as one of Champaign-Urbana's highest-rated landlords in 2026!
202 S. 1st Street Unit B
One of a kind one-bedroom
Located just a few blocks from the heart of campus! This spacious and light-filled 1930s-era unit on the second floor has 9’ ceilings, painstakingly refinished oak hardwood floors, original oak trim and doors, architectural arched doorways, and original brick accent wall in the dining room. And we just remodeled the kitchen! The open floor plan and light makes the unit seem even larger than its 580+ square feet (see additional images and floor plan below).
Unmatched location
It's in the sweet spot--close to everything! You're 8 blocks from the quad (the CU-MTD's yellow, teal, and brown bus lines pick up on the corner and make the 7-minute trip to the Quad every ten minutes). The building is even closer to Downtown, Champaign: A short walk will take you to the very heart of Downtown, with its interesting shops, cafes, restaurants, movie theaters, and night life. And your east windows overlook the immediately adjacent Scott Park/Second Street Basin, with landscaped recreation areas, fountains, and popular walking trails. Oh, and did we mention there's a coffee shop downstairs? THERE'S A COFFEE SHOP DOWNSTAIRS!!
Yeah, but how much?
So here's the deal. A spacious, light-filled vintage unit in a fantastic location comes with a price. In this case, that price is just $939 per month. And that includes free laundry, garbage/recycling, sewer/sanitary. Off-street parking is available. Contact us at info@electrumgroup.com for more information or to schedule a private showing. And ask us about the kitchen remodel option!
