Rare West Town/East Village offering combining the perfect bland of scale, architecture, design and outdoor living. This exceptional 4,000 Sq Ft, 5 bed, 4.5-bath home spans four finished levels and pairs soaring high ceilings, two primary suite options, a private south facing roof deck with postcard worthy skyline views, a fenced backyard, multiple outdoor entertaining spaces and an attached 2-car (tandem) garage. Extensively upgraded and impeccably maintained, this is sophisticated city living with room to spread out. From the moment you enter, the home reveals a thoughtful balance of architectural volume and refined, transitional design. White oak floors, modern tile, custom wall coverings, designer window treatments, upgraded lighting and organized closets create a cohesive and polished aesthetic throughout. The main level welcomes you with a gracious foyer and an abundance of storage before unfolding to a spacious in-law suite with a full bath. The suite opens out to the fenced backyard, recently refreshed with brand new artificial turf. An attached 2-car tandem garage w/ lofted storage completes this level. The 2nd floor is the architectural centerpiece, where 14' ceilings and southern exposure fill the expansive living spaces with natural light and frame tranquil views of tree-lined Superior St. The beautifully renovated kitchen combines crisp white & navy cabinetry with quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink, second prep sink, subway tile backsplash, new breakfast bar, upgraded plumbing fixtures, warming drawer, wet bar and pantry. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the oversized open-concept living and dining room, anchored by a new stone-surround fireplace and illuminated by soaring ceilings and double Juliet balconies. Just beyond, the rear deck extends the living space to the outdoors, creating an ideal setting for al fresco dining, grilling and entertaining. A sophisticated powder room featuring brass fixtures and chic designer wall coverings completes the level. Heading up, the 3rd floor introduces two generous guest bedrooms each with a walk-in closet, plus a hall bath and dedicated laundry room. The first of two primary suite possibilities offers an expansive walk-in closet and updated ensuite bath featuring a new vanity/ lighting, shower and Jacuzzi tub. At the top level, vaulted ceilings create a dramatic sense of volume and an entirely different experience. Use this exceptional space as a second oversized primary suite, family room, media lounge, home office, guest retreat or a combination of them all. The space opens directly to the private South facing roof deck, recently rebuilt (2023) and enhanced with new Trex decking. Here spectacular Chicago skyline views create the quintessential urban backdrop. A luxurious full bath with dual new vanities, updated shower and Jacuzzi tub, along with an XL walk-in closet, complete this level.
