This all-brick, new(er) construction penthouse in Lincoln Square offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, abundant natural light and outdoor living. The open concept living and dining area is bathed in natural light, from the south, east and west. It feels like you are in a luxurious secluded treehouse. The sleek kitchen features Bosch stainless steel appliances, double ovens, a waterfall island with seating for four, and ample cabinetry-perfect for both cooking and gathering. The spacious primary suite impresses with a walk-in closet and access to your private deck (also accessible from the hallway). The ensuite bath offers a true retreat with heated floors, dual vanity, and a walk-in shower with body sprays. Two additional bedrooms offer flexibility to suit your lifestyle. Thanks to living on a corner, the middle bedrooms enjoy views of tree-lined Oakley Avenue instead of staring at your neighbors home. A true standout is your private rooftop deck, accessible via your interior staircase. Get ready to relax or entertain friends and family with an outdoor TV, gas line and skyline views! First resale of this luxury home, other features include include 9' ceilings, 8' solid core doors, Hunter Douglas automatic shades, hardwood floors throughout, extra storage (plentiful storage within the home), LG washer/dryer and a garage cage. Prime location with Lincoln Square as well as Andersonville's prime shops and retail minutes away and Winnemac Park down your block. Your day can start by grabbing coffee next door at Cafe Mas, take the dog for a walk in Winnemac Park before heading to Geraldine's Bakery for lemon treats and stopping by Gene's Sausage Shop to grab dinner to grill on your rooftop deck, along with some very local Half Acre and Spiteful Brewery drinks. Western CTA .8 miles. Chappell Elementary.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
