Immerse yourself in the architectural grandeur of The Eddystone, a 21-story, 77-unit gem built in 1929 by Holabird & Root, set within Chicago's storied Lakeview neighborhood. This impeccably restored mid-rise marries the timeless elegance of its original design with a masterful infusion of modern Italian sophistication. As you enter this three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bath residence via a private elevator, you're greeted by an opulent foyer with soaring vaulted ceilings, setting the tone for the exquisitely curated interiors. The living room, bathed in natural light, frames breathtaking views of Belmont Harbor through oversized windows, anchored by a stunning black marble faux fireplace-a nod to the building's storied past. Entertain in the gracious formal dining room, which flows effortlessly into the library, den, and a state-of-the-art kitchen outfitted with Viking, Kitchen Aid, and Miele appliances. Custom ebonized cabinetry and black granite surfaces lend a sleek, contemporary flair, while luxurious Italian Agape fixtures accent the baths. The flexible layout offers the potential to expand, converting the den into a fourth bedroom and the half bath into a full. Experience exceptional amenities, including two generous private storage rooms, 24-hour door staff, a breathtaking rooftop deck, a fitness center, dedicated on-site engineering services, and the opportunity to rent two indoor garage spaces. The Eddystone offers not only an unmatched living experience but also an enviable lifestyle, with the vibrant offerings of Lakeview just steps away. From the tranquility of Belmont Harbor to the cultural and culinary diversity of Belmont and Broadway Streets, this location provides an exceptional blend of urban living and serene waterfront access. Nearby, Lincoln Park unfolds as a vast oasis of green, offering a range of outdoor activities from cycling paths to nature reserves. The Briar Street Theatre and Chicago's celebrated lakefront trail are within walking distance, while the iconic Wrigley Field is just a short distance away, offering a front-row seat to the energy and excitement of Chicago's sports culture. Surrounded by boutique shopping, gourmet dining, and accessible public transit, Lakeview embodies the very essence of Chicago's sophisticated yet lively urban charm-an inviting, walkable neighborhood where history and modernity coexist in perfect harmony.
