Property Description

Tucked away in an architecturally significant, boutique 8-unit elevator building, this extraordinary sixth-floor residence spans the entire level-offering complete privacy, panoramic city views, and unmatched natural light. Quietly positioned within one of the tallest historic structures in the neighborhood, this home delivers the rare combination of serenity and vibrancy, just one block from Division Street's dynamic energy. Recently reimagined with a meticulous full renovation, this nearly 2,000 square foot, 3-bedroom + sprawling den, 2-bath home is a masterclass in modern design. Great ceiling heights and wide-plank hardwood flooring set an elevated and airy tone throughout. Oversized windows wrap the space in natural light, while skyline views infuse with an urban pulse. At the heart of the home is a show-stopping chef's kitchen, anchored by a 10-foot quartz waterfall island offering exceptional storage and presence. Custom wood cabinetry, brand-new premium appliances, a statement tile backsplash, and matte black accessories deliver both function and flair. Adjacent dining areas provide flexibility to entertain on a grand scale-with the city as your glittering backdrop. The floor plan flows with intention and versatility. A massive (15' x 10') den is welcomed - perfect as a formal dining room, media lounge, or option for (an easily enclosed) fourth bedroom. A RARE organized pantry is tucked behind a designer sliding door. The corner primary suite easily accommodates a king-size bed and includes abundant space for additional furnishings. The second bedroom offers flexibility as an office, home gym or dressing room, complete with a professionally outfitted BIG walk-in closet. A separate guest wing offers privacy with its own spacious bedroom and beautifully finished bath just across the hall. Both bathrooms have been luxuriously redesigned with today's most coveted finishes. A dedicated laundry/storage room features newer machines and ample utility space. Additional highlights include designer light fixtures / sconces throughout, low monthly assessments, and a professionally managed, fully owner-occupied building with strong financials. Lobby renovation is already underway and fully funded. A full year of prepaid garage parking (North side of Milwaukee, between Paulina, Beach and Dean.) is VERY LIKELY included with the sale (talk to list agent). Moments from Jewel-Osco, Target, boutique fitness studios, spas, renowned bars, restaurants, and cafes-this location defines convenience and character (think: amazing pizza and sushi). Parks and the EL transit around the corner. Right off of Milwaukee with shops and iconic Chicago sightings. Pet- and investor-friendly. This is elevated city living-where history meets modern luxury in one of Chicago's most iconic neighborhoods.
