Penthouse Views Without the Penthouse Price The skyline is your backdrop. The terrace is your escape. The location gives you the best of city living and neighborhood charm. Perched on one of the highest floors in University Village, this freshly painted residence offers sweeping panoramic views of the Chicago skyline that few homes in this price range can match. From sunrise over the city to the glow of the skyline at night, the view becomes part of everyday life. Step outside to one of the building's largest private terraces. With 177 square feet of outdoor living space, it offers room to dine, entertain, garden, grill, or simply unwind above the city. More than a balcony, it functions as a true extension of the home and provides a level of outdoor living rarely found in a one-bedroom residence. Inside, the open-concept loft layout combines soaring concrete ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors, abundant natural light, a gas fireplace, and a spacious kitchen with island seating. The thoughtful design creates a seamless connection between the living space, the terrace, and the skyline beyond. A dedicated heated garage parking space is included in the purchase price, delivering both convenience and significant value in a market where parking is often sold separately. What truly sets this home apart is its location within University Village. While many downtown condos offer convenience, few offer the combination of skyline views, private outdoor space, heated parking, and a neighborhood environment surrounded by parks, playgrounds, landscaped courtyards, and open green space. Residents enjoy a professionally managed building featuring 24-hour door staff, a fitness center, bike storage, personal storage, and beautifully maintained common areas. The association maintains healthy reserves while offering competitive monthly assessments relative to many comparable buildings. Located just minutes from UIC, the Illinois Medical District, West Loop dining, downtown Chicago, museums, shopping, and major transportation corridors, with Metra access conveniently located directly behind the building. Buyer benefit Available The seller is offering a buyer benefit that may be applied toward closing costs or lowering your monthly mortgage through an interest rate buydown. Ask your agent for details.
