Live where Evanston buzzes! This 10th-floor unit, at the sought-after Optima Horizons, has south and east exposures and glimpses of the Chicago skyline from the private balcony. With hardwood floors throughout and amazing living space, this is a special unit.

The spacious living room is wrapped in glass and filled with natural light, creating the perfect spot for relaxing with a book, hosting friends, or just enjoying the energy of the city of Evanston. The spacious primary suite offers a large walk-in closet and a full ensuite bath with walk-in shower and granite-topped vanity.

In-unit laundry, an extra storage unit, deeded parking space and a private balcony all add to this opportunity. In addition, enjoy fabulous amenities, including a workout room and indoor pool, in one of Evanston's most architecturally distinct buildings in the heart of town, close to the Metra/CTA, Northwestern University, Whole Foods, and the lakefront. This is where lifestyle meets location!
