Overview

Exquisitely appointed and thoughtfully designed, this 4,700+ square foot full-floor residence on the 34th floor of the iconic Palmolive is not to be missed. Featuring three ensuite bedrooms plus a dramatic corner office/den, along with 3.1 baths, this home offers both scale and sophistication. With graciously proportioned rooms and refined detailing throughout, it lives like a single-family home in the sky ideal for displaying art while capturing sweeping lake and city views. Your private elevator opens directly into an elegant foyer with herringbone floors, leading to a gallery corridor, the perfect setting for showcasing an art collection and setting the tone for the timeless design within. Bathed in natural light, the formal living and dining spaces are perfectly suited for both grand entertaining and intimate gatherings. At the northeast corner, a showstopping office/den wrapped in luxurious wood and anchored by a fireplace with a striking art deco surround provides corner windows and panoramic views of the lake and skyline an inspiring setting for work or retreat. The eat-in kitchen is a chef's dream, appointed with Wolf, Sub-Zero, and Thermador appliances, granite countertops and backsplash, a butler's pantry, and custom cabinetry, all overlooking Lake Michigan. The primary suite spans the west wing and offers a true private sanctuary. A sitting room at the entry serves as a versatile retreat, while the bedroom itself boasts sparkling northwest corner views. The spa-like ensuite bath includes a Whirlpool tub, separate shower, private commode, double sinks, separate vanity, and east-facing lake views. A custom dressing room completes the suite, with exposures down Michigan Avenue. Two additional bedrooms, both with ensuite baths and excellent closet space, round out the private quarters. A powder room, laundry room, and ample storage further enhance the home. The Palmolive Building offers world-class amenities: 24-hour door staff, onsite manager and engineer, gym, Whirlpool, steam room, and the Beacon Club party room. An onsite valet garage is available, with parking rights for two cars included in the price.
