About This Home

As of December 2022

Welcome to the historic Opera Lofts! Originally built in 1909 as the Lyric Opera of Chicago's set and costume design workshop and storage facility. Today it houses architecturally dramatic loft residences, but its hallways and common spaces still display set pieces and relics from the Opera's rich past. #316 features 17ft ceilings, floor to ceiling windows, hardwood floors throughout, exposed brick, concrete, pipes and ductwork making it a very unique space. With just under 1200sf this 2bed/2bath plus office nook offers an updated kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and garbage disposal. The oversized 17'x11' primary bedroom has both his/her closets, an ensuite bathroom with double vanity and a remodeled shower/tub combo. A modern second bathroom with a walk in shower, generously sized second bedroom, in unit laundry and tons of additional storage round out the apartment. Building amenities include a fitness center and rooftop deck with unobstructed city views. Deeded garage parking available as well for an additional $25k. Low HOAs, well run management and healthy association make this the complete package!
