01About this home

One of the most modern renovations to come to market at The Carlyle, this beautifully reimagined residence combines expansive living spaces, exceptional craftsmanship, and sweeping views of Lake Michigan and the Chicago skyline. Designed with both everyday living and entertaining in mind, the home features a thoughtful open floor plan, floor-to-ceiling windows with motorized shades, herringbone oak hardwood floors, and three fireplaces throughout. A spacious front balcony spans the main living areas and showcases stunning lake views, while a private west-facing balcony off the primary suite offers spectacular sunsets and sparkling city views. The custom Copatlife Italian kitchen opens seamlessly to the living and dining spaces and is appointed with quartz countertops, premium stainless steel appliances, and a generous breakfast bar. The primary suite feels like a luxury hotel retreat, featuring a spa-inspired bath with heated floors, dual vanities, a freestanding soaking tub, oversized steam shower, separate water closet with bidet, and an exceptionally large walk-in closet. Two additional en-suite rooms provide tremendous flexibility and can easily function as guest suites, private offices, libraries, fitness spaces, or additional bedrooms depending on your needs. A thoughtfully redesigned laundry room offers extensive storage and organization. Residents enjoy the full-service lifestyle The Carlyle is known for, including 24-hour door staff, valet parking, on-site management, private storage, an indoor lap pool, fitness center, rooftop sundeck with grills and seating areas, and elegant entertaining spaces. Ideally situated in the heart of the Gold Coast, just steps from Michigan Avenue, Oak Street Beach, premier dining, shopping, and cultural attractions, this is an opportunity to own a turnkey residence in one of Chicago's premier legacy luxury buildings.
