Property Description
St. John's Park Townhome with Rare Penthouse Retreat. This multi-level River West townhome combines a highly functional layout, abundant natural light, and exceptional indoor and outdoor living spaces. Tucked within the highly desired St. John's Park development, this pristine residence is entering the market for the very first time. Designed for both seamless entertaining and everyday living, the home boasts a highly versatile 3-bedroom layout. The third floor features two traditional bedroom suites, while the flexible first floor offers a third bedroom that also functions beautifully as a grand home office, library, or private gym. Crowning the home is a stunning fourth-floor penthouse room, currently utilized as a luxury home cinema, which serves two separate private roof decks. This full top-floor living space is a true rarity, found in only 13 of the courtyard-facing homes within the community. In addition to the 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, this urban retreat features a private attached two-car garage with considerable storage, generous open-concept living and dining spaces complemented by a gas fireplace, and an adjacent open kitchen with a center island. Step right outside the kitchen onto a private balcony equipped with a natural gas, commercial-grade TEC grill. Enjoy the peace of a quiet residential enclave while living just moments from the world-class dining and entertainment of Fulton Market, Randolph Street, River North, and the Salt Shed. Commuting is effortless, located just a block and a half from the CTA Blue Line and mere minutes to the Kennedy Expressway. (Note: The home is being sold unfurnished; listing photos depict the home when it was occupied and fully furnished. Virtual staging of outdoor furniture on the southern roof deck is the exception to the depiction of prior real furnishing, and those photos are marked as such.)
