Welcome to the crown jewel of Van Buren Lofts, an expansive south facing 3 bed, 2 bath penthouse that stands as the largest floor plan in the building. Soaring 12-foot floor-to-ceiling windows flood the home with sunlight all day long, creating an airy, open feel that's both dramatic and inviting. Enjoy two private balconies, ideal for morning coffee or sunset unwinding, with seamless indoor-outdoor flow from both the living space and the primary suite. The updated chef's kitchen impresses with white cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, a sprawling island with counter-height seating, tiled backsplash, modern hardware, and a pantry with custom shelving. The space flows into a generous living area anchored by a gas fireplace, perfect for hosting friends on crisp Chicago winter evenings or curling up by the fire on a cozy night in. The enclosed king-sized primary suite offers a serene retreat, complete with a massive walk-in closet, dual vanities in the en-suite bath, and direct access to one of the home's two private balconies. The flexible layout includes a spacious enclosed second bedroom and a versatile third bedroom, deal for guests, a home office, or a fitness room. Extras include: in-unit laundry, newer HVAC system. Step out onto your rear balcony and store away seasonal gear in the massive private storage room. Pull right into your deeded, heated garage parking spot on the main level.
