Positioned on the high 36th floor of James House, Unit 3602-04 is a spectacular 2,000-square-foot southeast corner combination residence at the exact intersection of the Gold Coast, Old Town, and Lincoln Park. Re-engineered through a deliberate design exercise bringing together a former one-bedroom and two-bedroom footprint, the architectural layout pairs four-way light exposure with sweeping panoramas of Lake Michigan, Oak Street Beach, the horizon, and the Chicago skyline. Carlisle Hardwood floors flow throughout the living space. This apartment centers on an open chef's kitchen featuring stone counters, custom cabinetry, and premium appliances, anchored by a massive stone island set directly against the window backdrop. Standing here with guests, the entire cityscape and lake unroll in front of you. The layout extends into an open dining area and a living room area opposite a large family room/living room area. Kitchen mechanics include a brand-new refrigerator, dishwasher, and built-in wine cooler (installed August 2026), alongside a new oven and microwave. Dual private balconies capture sunrises over the water and sunsets over the grid, complete with front-row views of summertime Navy Pier fireworks. Motorized shades are installed on every window. The split spatial plan delivers distinct private domains. The oversized primary suite replaces what was originally an entire one-bedroom layout, incorporating its own private balcony, a custom cedar closet, expansive Elfa storage systems, and a double-vanity en-suite full bathroom with a separate tub and shower. Tucked discreetly within the primary suite is a dedicated laundry room with built-in storage and a large soaking sink. Bedroom 2 sits in the front center, taking advantage of identical high-floor skyline and lake vistas. Accessed through a dedicated doorway off the family room, Bedroom 3 functions as a completely private wing with the energy of the city in full view-ideal for a secluded guest suite or home office. All three bathrooms in the home are full baths. Two separate storage rooms on-premises are included. Located steps from Lincoln Park, South Pond, Lincoln Park Zoo, and North Avenue Beach, with immediate pedestrian access to dining, nightlife, and transit. Full-service building amenities include 24/7 door staff, on-site management, receiving for package delivery, maintenance, an all-season room, and a sky deck. Optional on-site garage parking, outdoor pool, tennis/pickleball courts, bike storage, hospitality rooms, and a fitness center are available.
