Bright, airy and perfectly laid out, this north-facing two-bed, two-bath home at The Fordham greets you with sunlight flooding through oversized windows, accentuating rich hardwood floors and a gas-burning fireplace. The primary suite offers a peaceful escape-complete with a glass-door shower, jetted tub and plenty of storage-while the second bedroom enjoys its own full bath that's equally accessible from the hall for guests. Day-to-day life is effortless here: an in-unit washer/dryer and the private balcony is tailor-made for morning coffee or sunset cocktails. From that perch, you'll find treetops giving way to the soaring spires of Holy Name Cathedral-a view that feels uniquely Chicago. Living at The Fordham really does rival a luxury resort. Plunge into the heated indoor pool, then unwind on the sun deck. Catch a film in the private theater or host friends in the stylish lounge. Wine and cigar enthusiasts will appreciate the dedicated cellar and humidor room, and there's even a rooftop dog run for four-legged companions. Backed by roughly $4 million in HOA reserves and 24-hour door staff, you'll enjoy both peace of mind and a sense of true pampering. Included in the list price is a private storage unit-and for an additional $25,000, you can secure your deeded parking space in the building's garage. All of this, just steps from the Magnificent Mile's shops, world-class restaurants and art galleries. City living has never felt so seamless.
