Property Description
Experience top-floor luxury living in this exceptional penthouse, offering a private rooftop sanctuary with panoramic skyline views with two additional private outdoor spaces and a rare, fully enclosed 2-car PRIVATE GARAGE. Designed for both elegance and function, this 3 bed, 2 bath residence offers a wide open floor plan complimented with elevated ceilings and high-end finishes. The open-concept living area is anchored by a double quartz waterfall peninsula and a sleek, modern fireplace, creating the perfect ambiance for elegant entertaining or intimate evenings at home. The chef's kitchen is a true centerpiece, outfitted with bespoke DioLini Italian cabinetry, integrated Bosch appliances, custom pull-out pantry shelving, and designer fixtures that elevate both form and function. Step outside to a private, covered front terrace-an ideal setting for effortless al fresco dining. Retreat to the luxe primary suite, where tranquility reigns. A spa-inspired bath features an oversized soaking tub, an upgraded rainfall shower system, mirrored accent wall, and contemporary barn doors. The fully customized walk-in closet includes an integrated drawer and storage system that maximizes space without sacrificing style. Every detail throughout the home reflects intentional, high-end design-from LED recessed lighting and solar-tinted windows to custom solar shades and double-paned tilt-and-turn windows and doors for enhanced insulation and acoustic comfort. Ascend to your private rooftop sanctuary-an expansive, ceramic-tiled terrace designed for memorable sunset gatherings, weekend lounging, or serene moments beneath the city lights. An additional shared rooftop area provides even more panoramic views for your guests to enjoy. Additional features include a rare private, fully enclosed two-car garage with epoxy-coated floors and built-in overhead storage, a smart thermostat, whole-home humidifier, fiber optic internet, and pre-wiring for in-ceiling speakers and surround sound. The home's entry is secured by a fire-rated solid steel door with a triple-bolt locking system, offering peace of mind with every return. Meticulously maintained by its original owner, this home includes complete appliance manuals and maintenance records, with a recent HVAC inspection and condenser service completed in July 2025. The self-managed, boutique building offers low assessments and unmatched proximity to Chicago's best dining, nightlife, shopping, fitness studios, and green spaces. This is more than a residence-it's a private, design-forward retreat in the heart of the city. Rarely does a home of this caliber come to market. Welcome to your next chapter in modern luxury.
