With over 1500 sq. feet of living space, this is not your typical 2 bedroom Chicago condo. Extra-wide and with two exposures, the open layout is bathed in light by elegant arched windows in the front and two large sets of sliding doors in the back at all times of the day. Gaze at the sunset out your architectural arched windows from your kitchen, living room, and dining room while curled up in front of the fire, host your friends and family for dinner in your large dining area, and grill out on your extra long back deck with stunning views of the Willis (Sears) Tower. The updated kitchen with beautiful white cabinets (complete with new LED above cabinet lighting), granite counters, and an extra large kitchen island with seating for 6+ is the perfect place to entertain. Two large bedrooms with skyline views and sliding doors lead to the back deck are located in the rear of the condo. Enjoy an enormous primary suite with double sinks, a jetted soaking tub (hello bubble baths!) , and a walk in shower. An exterior parking space and a side-by-side washer and dryer complete this magnificent home. Walk down the block to restaurants, shops, and everything the city has to offer.
