Penthouse Views Without the Penthouse Price The skyline is your backdrop. The terrace is your escape. The location gives you the best of city living and neighborhood charm. Perched on one of the highest floors in University Village, this freshly painted residence offers sweeping panoramic views of the Chicago skyline that few homes in this price range can match. From sunrise over the city to the glow of the skyline at night, the view becomes part of everyday life. Step outside to one of the building's largest private terraces. With 177 square feet of outdoor living space, it offers room to dine, entertain, garden, grill, or simply unwind above the city. More than a balcony, it functions as a true extension of the home and provides a level of outdoor living rarely found in a one-bedroom residence. Inside, the open-concept loft layout combines soaring concrete ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors, abundant natural light, a gas fireplace, and a spacious kitchen with island seating. The thoughtful design creates a seamless connection between the living space, the terrace, and the skyline beyond. A dedicated heated garage parking space is included in the purchase price, delivering both convenience and significant value in a market where parking is often sold separately. What truly sets this home apart is its location within University Village.
