Welcome to Residence 42A where you will enjoy views of Chicago's most iconic buildings and the gorgeous blue water of Lake Michigan. The gracious proportions of this three bedroom, two-and-a-half bath home make it perfect for both entertaining and everyday living. The living room, library (third bedroom with pocket doors), and dining room with wet bar flow beautifully together and yet are defined spaces. The chef's kitchen offers a suite of high-end appliances, including a Sub-Zero fridge, Wolf double oven, Wolf 5-burner induction cooktop, and GE Monogram microwave. A breakfast room overlooks the lake and Navy Pier. This home is perfect for the art lover, with the entry and gallery adding wall space to the other rooms. The primary suite offers thrilling east-facing lake views, three organized walk-in closets, and a spacious ensuite bath with radiant heated floors. The north-facing second bedroom has an efficient built-in office plus room for guests and an ensuite bathroom that is equally impressive, a walk-in closet with custom built-ins, and a second full bath with great storage. The third bedroom offers ultimate flexibility as a bedroom, library, or office. In addition, the home has a beautifully appointed powder room and a discreet utility closet with a washer and vented dryer. Additional walk-in storage is just steps down the hallway on the same floor. Best of all, 161 Chicago offers five-star service, with its 24-hour door and front desk staff, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a relaxing indoor pool, and a rooftop deck for watching fireworks. This is a pet-friendly building, with parking available. Surrounded by the best that Chicago has to offer, you are steps from luxury shopping, fine dining, and arts and culture.
