About This Home

Music buffs, this one's for you. Welcome to this modern two-bedroom, two-bath loft in the iconic Chess Lofts which was home to the legendary record label, Chess Records. They helped define blues and rock 'n' roll. Soaring high ceilings, exposed brick, premium flooring, and designer lighting frame an open layout with skyline views and a private balcony. The sleek kitchen features stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, and a glass tile backsplash. Four full-size closets and a pantry offer excellent storage within the unit. Both bathrooms feature stone showers, including a soaking tub in the primary suite. In-unit laundry and smart temperature control add everyday convenience. This full-amenity elevator building includes a rooftop deck with city and lake views, fitness center, bike room, and onsite engineer. A deeded indoor garage parking spot is INCLUDED in the list price. Located in the heart of the South Loop, you're close to dining, nightlife, live music at Reggie's and the Velvet Lounge, Wintrust Arena, and the growing entertainment district. Downtown, Museum Campus, Grant Park, the Art Institute, Soldier Field, and McCormick Place are all minutes away. A playground and gated dog park next door make this home just as practical as it is stylish.
