A reimagined penthouse of rare character, this River North duplex loft has been transformed by interior designer Studio MAK into a fully realized, design-forward residence-now offered fully furnished for a seamless turnkey experience. Positioned along the river on the 6th floor, the home offers a more intimate, residential perspective-where the rhythm of the water and the charm of the surrounding architecture create a sense of calm within the city. Just across the river, the highly anticipated Bally's Casino development is underway, set to introduce a dynamic mix of dining and entertainment. Yet on this side, the neighborhood retains its quiet, walkable character-offering a balance of energy and tranquility that is increasingly rare in River North. Inside, every detail has been thoughtfully considered and elevated. The interiors are layered with curated furnishings and bespoke finishes, resulting in a cohesive, livable work of design. The chef's kitchen is both sculptural and functional, appointed with walnut cabinetry and a suite of high-performance appliances, seamlessly integrated into the main living space designed for both everyday living and sophisticated entertaining. A custom floating staircase leads to the upper level, where the home reveals its most captivating moments. A well-appointed family room with a wet bar and wine refrigerator creates an additional layer of living and entertaining space, complemented by a private bedroom and full bathroom-ideal for guests or a more secluded retreat. Just beyond, a glass-enclosed solarium-bathed in natural light-has been thoughtfully envisioned as a private wellness retreat, complete with a sauna, creating a tranquil space to unwind year-round. This serene setting transitions effortlessly to a private rooftop terrace, offering sweeping river and city views. With water and electric hookups, the terrace becomes a true extension of the home-blurring the line between indoors and out, and elevating everyday living, entertaining, and relaxation to its highest form. The primary suite is quietly refined, offering a sense of retreat with a spa-caliber bath and generous proportions, while additional bedrooms and multiple living spaces provide flexibility without compromising design. A rare offering within the building, the expansive 23' x 17' storage suite located directly across the unit introduces endless possibilities-whether envisioned as a private fitness studio, home cinema, office, or creative workspace. All of this is set within the well-run 550 N Kingsbury, offering a full-service lifestyle with door staff, elevator access, fitness center, receiving room, and a common sundeck with skyline views. Ideally positioned in the heart of River North, the location provides seamless access to the highway and public transportation, as well as proximity to the East Bank Club and Montgomery Ward Park's riverwalk, green space, dog park, and outdoor amenities. This is not simply a loft-it is a fully reimagined residence, curated and delivered with intention. A rare opportunity to own a turnkey penthouse in one of Chicago's most dynamic neighborhoods, where architecture, design, and lifestyle converge.
