Perched on the 14th floor with expansive west-facing views, this bright two-bedroom residence overlooks miles of open sky and Evanston's tree-city canopy with no neighboring high-rises blocking the horizon. Spectacular sunsets and the changing seasons unfold across the landscape, with summer fireworks and aircraft gliding toward O'Hare visible in the distance. Offering approximately 1,044 square feet of well-proportioned space, the home features a spacious living and dining area spanning the width of the unit and opening onto a private balcony. The kitchen connects directly to the living space and has been thoughtfully improved with additional cabinetry, extended counter space, a newly installed LG radiant cooktop, and new overhead lighting; original hanging cabinets were removed to create cleaner sightlines and a more open feel while maintaining separation from the main living area. Notable updates include fresh paint throughout, a new kitchen faucet, new bathroom faucets, updated rain-shower fixtures, and renovated baths with updated lighting, mirrors, shower tile, and fixtures. The primary suite accommodates a king-sized bed and offers a wall of closets and an ensuite bath, while the unusually spacious second bedroom is located adjacent to a second full bath and provides excellent flexibility for guests, a home office, or both. Laundry is conveniently located in a hallway closet rather than inside the primary bath, a meaningful layout advantage for guests and roommates alike. Garage parking and storage are located on the third floor. Optima Horizons is a full-amenity, pet-friendly building with door staff, indoor heated pool, fitness center, party room, and bike storage, ideally located in the heart of downtown Evanston near restaurants, shopping, CTA and Metra trains, Northwestern University, and the lakefront.
