WOW! Located one block off Lake Shore Drive in the serene Gold Coast neighborhood of Chicago and on top of a thirty-story building, a one-of-kind 3,000 square foot PENTHOUSE apartment captures 180-degree views of Lake Michigan, Lincoln Park, and the city. Two private outdoor terraces amplify the panoramic vistas, one includes the iconic Chicago skyline to the south. Current owners along with a talented architectural designer combined two units, raised the ceilings (now 9 feet), knocked down the walls to reconfigure and create a sophisticated space full of unique architectural elements. Finishes include wide-plank hardwood floors, harlequin black and white marble floors, custom metal framed glass doors, two wood-burning fireplaces with marble and metal surrounds, designer lighting and fixtures, floor to ceiling windows (recently re-paned) and more. The floor plan boasts an abundance of entertaining space-living room, dining room, library area with built-in shelving, butler's pantry/bar with beverage refrigerator, additional dishwasher and in-unit washer and dryer occupy the northeast corner of the apartment. Chef's kitchen with custom cabinetry, marble counters, marble backsplashes and high-end appliances opens to informal dining and family rooms, all located on the opposing northwest corner. Second terrace is conveniently accessible off the kitchen, ideal for outdoor cooking and eating. Two large luxury bedroom suites, each worthy of use as a principal suite, located on opposite ends of the unit provide for maximum privacy and flexible use. Both have awesome views, one east the other west. Third bedroom currently used as an office is located near a third full bathroom. Storage is cleverly and consistently integrated throughout the apartment, much discreetly hidden behind panels and alike. The building has an amazing outdoor swimming pool and entertainment area. There is a fitness room, storage and attached garage parking. Twenty-four door staff and on-site management provide safety and convenience. (Seller reserves silver chandelier in east bedroom suite.)
