Property Description
Lincoln Park Timber Loft- A rare opportunity to own one of the most unique properties in all of Chicago! From the main level living room, LOOK UP! At the heart of the home is a dramatic two-story living space connected by a staircase and defined by soaring 28-foot timber ceilings, oversized windows, exposed brick and an interior balcony surround! The second-level balcony overlooks the entire space below, creating a dramatic, open layout that feels both expansive and architecturally unique. There is nothing like it! Spanning approximately 1,750 square feet, this 2-bedroom + den home lives like a single-family residence, with hardwood flooring, and curated lighting and art throughout. A private entrance and secluded patio create a rare indoor-outdoor experience-completely removed from the street. The chef's kitchen is thoughtfully designed with cherry cabinetry, granite countertops, and professional stainless steel appliances. It flows seamlessly into expansive living and dining areas ideal for both entertaining and everyday living. The first bedroom and bath are on the main level for convenient access. Head up to the second floor where you will find an open second living room, and a wide interior balcony that surrounds the perimeter of the living room below. There is plenty of space in this area for work stations, a library or an art studio. The primary suite features a spa bath with a massaging whirlpool tub, alongside two fully organized walk-in closets, laundry and abundant additional storage. Tucked away within the architecturally rich Surrey Court, this extraordinary duplex offers the perfect balance of design, volume, and privacy. This boutique 22-unit warehouse-to-condo conversion preserved the industrial character, but added modern functionality-offering a quiet, open setting just moments from DePaul University, Lake Shore Athletic Club, Midtown, shops, and cafes. Experience unmatched convenience with a Starbucks just across the street and the Fullerton CTA Station only three blocks away-servicing the Red, Brown, and Purple lines-plus immediate access to the lakefront. Enjoy being near to the world's best dining and cafes. Located within the highly sought-after Oscar Mayer Elementary School and Lincoln Park High School districts. Deeded parking included. A truly one-of-a-kind home in one of Chicago's most sought-after locations!!
