About This Home

Experience penthouse living that truly feels like a single-family home nestled in between iconic Uptown and Andersonville. This rare 3-story residence sits on a charming tree-lined street and features an extra-wide floor plan with expansive room sizes, hardwood floors throughout, soaring ceilings and incredible natural light.

The suite boasts vaulted ceilings, double closets and a private bath complete with double vanities, steam shower, and a soaking tub. There are an additional 2 bedrooms and full bath on this floor. The third-floor family room offers versatile living space ideal for a home office, studio, media room, or guest suite. Parking - no problem, garage space included. Perfectly positioned just two blocks from Clark Street's vibrant shops and restaurants, 1.5 blocks to the Red Line, and four blocks from the lakefront, with an express bus nearby for a quick 10-minute commute downtown.
