About This Home
Once a historic ComEd substation, this one-of-a-kind loft-style condo blends dramatic architecture with modern updates in a truly special space. Soaring ceilings, oversized windows, and original industrial details create a home full of character and natural light. The main level includes an entry foyer, flexible office nook, half bath, and an open living, dining, and kitchen area that's been thoughtfully updated with high-end finishes. A striking staircase with the original substation railings leads to the lower level, where two spacious bedroom suites each feature spa-like baths and vaulted concrete ceilings-once designed to support massive turbines, now offering privacy and quiet for restful nights. Step outside to enjoy a private backyard garden with plenty of room for grilling and multiple seating areas, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. European soundproof windows, updated mechanicals, and top-quality finishes throughout add comfort and peace of mind. An off-street parking space is included. Ideally situated between the lakefront (2 blocks to the beach!) and Andersonville, with neighborhood favorites, shops, and transit just steps away, this home offers both convenience and a sense of retreat.
