This original artist's live/work loft is in the heart of the historic Printers Row neighborhood of the South Loop. A huge unit with over 3,100 square feet of light-filled, open space; 13.5' high ceilings and tall oversized, newer windows. As is, it is perfect for artists, musicians, architects and designers, or anyone who wants an unencumbered space in which to work and live. There is endless potential to re-configure the expansive floor plan into an environment customized to suit your needs and style. This handsome second-floor unit is located in the Donohue Building, one of the first converted loft buildings in the city. Currently, the loft contains a spacious bedroom, large library or second bedroom, and a designated creative workspace and viewing area; the remaining spaces are used for living and dining with a kitchen area and full bathroom. Some original hardwood floors and exposed brick throughout. The freight elevator opens directly into the loft while the passenger elevator is steps from the front door. There are only 2 units per floor on this side of the Donohue building creating a sense of privacy. Radiator heat is included in the assessment, and central air conditioning was added by the owner. The building itself is secure and well-maintained with 7-day a week maintenance staff and fitness center. Located just steps away from some of Chicago's best restaurants, bars, shops, and cultural attractions and within walking distance of The Loop. Whether you're looking for a night out on the town or just want to explore the vibrant South Loop neighborhood, you'll never run out of things to do and see. Close to public transportation, expressways and the lake. This is an extremely rare opportunity! Being sold "AS IS".
