About This Home

Set high above the Magnificent Mile in the esteemed Olympia Centre, this beautifully appointed corner residence offers generous proportions, thoughtful design, and sweeping southeastern views of the lake and skyline. A gracious entry with marble flooring opens to a large-scale living and dining space filled with natural light from wraparound windows, creating an ideal setting for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is bright and elegant with marble floors, a custom bar, and a breakfast area overlooking the city. The intelligently designed split floorplan offers exceptional privacy, with an expansive primary suite featuring space for a sitting area or home office, two large walk-in closets, and a marble bath with soaking tub and separate shower. The secondary bedroom is equally spacious with its own recently renovated en-suite bath. A powder room, full laundry and storage room, and custom details throughout complete the interior. Residents enjoy the full-service lifestyle that makes the Olympia Centre so desirable, with 24-hour door staff, concierge, an indoor pool, shared roof deck and fitness center, all in a prime location just moments from the lakefront, renowned museums, and Chicago's most iconic restaurants and shopping. On-site garage parking available.
