Enter a world of bygone luxury, the outstanding and historically significant Marshall Field, Jr mansion commands attention. See the magnificence of the original mansion pictured herewith. In Chicago lore, there is no family more prominent and noteworthy than the Marshall Fields. They always insisted on the best and this home was a loving gift by Marshall Field to his son. No expense was spared creating this incredible property. Historians have said that the Prairie Historic District was Chicago's original gold coast home to the titans of industry. Landmarked due to its prominence, it was converted into 6 highly prized condominium units in 2005, today the penthouse is being offered accompanied by 2 tandem heated garage spaces with private EV charger. The home's interior boasts top of the line finishes and decorative features. Presently situated to include 2 en suite bedrooms, it would be easy to convert the space to 3 private bedrooms and a guest room with minimal effort. Within the over 3,400 square feet, luxury abounds with 10 foot+ ceilings, gourmet kitchen, top end laundry space, 4 working fireplaces, family room with step out Juliette balcony large enough for having coffee in the morning overlooking the beautifully landscaped gardens. There is a butler's pantry for gracious entertaining, custom silk wall covering in the large formal dining room, wide planked oak flooring, steam shower in the master and enough closet space to satisfy the most discerning owner. A simple reconfiguration of the second bedroom yields 2 private bedroom spaces sharing a bath. What is now utilized as a study with built in bookcases can easily function as a guest room with fireplace. The imposing property stands proudly behind gates designed to reflect the original architecture ensuring privacy and security on a tree lined street in the famed Prairie Street Historic District.
