Property Description
Experience jaw-dropping skyline views from this one-of-a-kind, two-story penthouse in the heart of East Ukrainian Village. With soaring 20-foot vaulted ceilings, dramatic corner windows, and three private outdoor terraces, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an unmatched blend of space, light, and style. The main level features an expansive living room with a marble fireplace and access to a private terrace perfect for grilling and entertaining. The newly updated kitchen brings a modern edge with quartz countertops, refinished cabinetry, new stainless steel LG appliances (2020), contemporary lighting, a huge island with bar seating, and refreshed backsplash tile. A dedicated dining area flows seamlessly between kitchen and living spaces, making the main floor ideal for hosting. Two large bedrooms-including one with its own private terrace-plus a fully renovated guest bathroom (2022) and a walk-in laundry room complete this level. Upstairs, a dramatic second living space overlooks the main floor and features sweeping, unobstructed views of downtown Chicago - this building exceeds current height limits, so the vistas will remain protected. A built-in office nook adds function, while the primary suite delivers luxury at its fullest. Enjoy a large walk-in closet, a fully reimagined spa-caliber primary bath (2020) with heated floors, new vanity and lighting, soaking tub, glass shower, and a private terrace framing postcard-perfect skyline views. Recent additions include custom built-ins in the bedroom and loft, new blinds, smart lighting, and updated fireplace surround (2024). Significant building updates include full tuckpointing (2020 & 2026), roof repairs (2023), new common-area tiling (2025), new front door (2025), updated landscaping and brick pavers (2023), and replaced living room windows (2020). Smart-home upgrades include Nest thermostat and doorbell, motorized blinds in the living room, and multiple added outlets and lighting enhancements. Garage parking is included. Set in an unbeatable East Ukrainian Village location, you'll love being just minutes from renowned restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, the Blue Line, and easy access to the expressway and downtown. This is a rare penthouse with volume, drama, and thoughtfully executed updates-an urban sanctuary unlike anything else on the market.
