01About this home

Welcome to timeless elegance at 232 Walton. This extraordinary 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom residence with a dedicated office is set within a prestigious pre-war co-op just half a block from Lake Michigan and Michigan Avenue. The intimate, boutique building offers a sense of privacy rarely found with only two residences per floor and elevator access. A marble floored foyer graciously introduces the home, thoughtfully connecting each wing of the residence and featuring a discreet, custom-built mudroom. The expansive main living space is flooded with natural light from oversized south facing windows and anchored by a stunning marble fireplace framed by original moldings, with hardwood floors extending throughout. French doors lead to the formal dining room, an ideal setting for large scale entertaining and showcasing an art collection. A classic swinging butler door provides seamless flow between the dining room and kitchen, perfect for effortless hosting. The kitchen has been completely reimagined for the modern chef, featuring custom cabinetry, stone countertops, and top-of-the-line Thermador, Sub-Zero, and Miele appliances. A wet bar with dual beverage refrigerators and a cozy dinette completes the space, balancing luxury with everyday functionality. The bedroom wing is rich with original architectural details, including built-in storage and an inlaid ceiling with integrated lighting. All bedrooms are generously sized suites with ensuite or connected bathrooms and ample closet space. The primary suite, privately positioned on the southwest corner, enjoys subtle views toward Navy Pier and beautiful southern light. It easily accommodates king-sized furnishings, a sitting area, and offers three closets. The spa like primary bath features dual vanities and walk-in showers with Waterworks fixtures, separated by a pocket door to create a perfectly designed double bath experience. Three additional bedrooms maintain the home's original charm with a built-in desk and bookcases. Two share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, while the third enjoys ensuite. One of the bedrooms is currently set up as a second living space with French doors leading to the living space. The rear wing of the residence is dedicated to a Ralph Lauren inspired office, complete with exquisite built-ins and an adjoining full marble bathroom with walk in shower. Additional highlights include a full laundry room with side-by-side washer and dryer, a central SpacePak system, and a meticulous renovation that preserves the home's historic character while offering modern comfort. Building amenities include a large common outdoor patio, dog run, landscaped green space, and valet parking next door. There are no financing restrictions, and property taxes are included in the monthly assessment. Welcome to refined, RL-inspired co-op living on Walton.
