About This Home

Rarely available and exquisitely reimagined, this expansive 2-bedroom, 2.1-bath residence with a dedicated office offers breathtaking views of the lake, park, and Navy Pier from a stunning great room that anchors the home. Designed for both refined living and effortless entertaining, the space has been thoughtfully opened up by removing walls and pillars to create an impressive flow, complemented by custom lighting on a Lutron system and fresh paint throughout-including ceilings, closets, and windows. At the heart of the home is a beautifully updated chef's kitchen featuring 48" custom cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, double ovens, and a spacious island now topped with a striking soapstone waterfall counter. Enhancements include new marble countertops and backsplash, a new sink and faucet, updated lighting, and a cleverly added pantry built into previously unused wall space. Adjacent to the kitchen, the formal dining room has been reconfigured to include a stunning custom bar with wine cooler and beverage refrigerator, an elegant wallpaper accent wall, and a statement "Cloud" chandelier from Apparatus. This space opens to a private terrace, offering panoramic vistas and the perfect backdrop for entertaining. The inviting living area includes new gas fireplace framed by a sophisticated stone surround. Hardwood floors run throughout, complemented by marble baths and designer window treatments. The primary suite and secondary bedroom both feature fully outfitted closets, while the dedicated office includes custom built-in bookcases. Bathrooms have been refreshed with new faucets, mirrors, and lighting, with the powder room fully gutted and completely redesigned. Even the laundry room has been elevated with the addition of cabinetry for increased function and style. Residents will enjoy a full suite of amenities including 24-hour doorman service, on-site engineer, full-time building manager, a recently renovated and expanded fitness center, a private storage room, and a temperature-controlled wine locker accommodating approximately 60 bottles. The home also includes one deeded parking space and valet guest parking. Located in one of Chicago's most coveted neighborhoods, this extraordinary residence is just steps from world-class shopping, dining, entertainment, parks, and the lakefront. This is truly a rare opportunity to own a turnkey home in an iconic setting.
