The spectacular lake and park views through the floor-to-ceiling windows of this penthouse studio are so immersive you may feel like you're living outdoors. The entire kitchen is brand new: the appliances have never been used and still have the tags on them, and no dishes have ever occupied the cabinets or sat on the countertop. The bathroom vanity and shower are also brand new, and the unit features a big walk-in closet. This full-amenity building features 24-hr door staff, a gym, an outdoor pool and tennis court, a sundeck and picnic area, bike storage, onsite laundry and dry cleaning, onsite management and maintenance, a party room, package receiving, and more. This condominium is located in Buena Park, which is my neighborhood. Buena Park is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and features one of the best collections of prairie style architecture and mansions in the city. It's a wonderful area to walk around. The neighborhood also includes Jewel grocery store, Dollop Coffeeshop, Kleins Bakery and Cafe, Buena Bar, Michaels Original Pizzeria and Tavern, North Buena Deli and Wine, and much more. You are walking distance to the park and Montrose Beach, a natural dunes and bird sanctuary area, the bike/running path, a running track, soccer fields, Cricket Hill for kite-flying and winter sledding, Marovitz Golf Course, and more. Express buses to downtown stop out front. Pets are welcome. A garage parking space is available for sale with the unit for additional cost.
