Description
This exceptional, turnkey residence is ideally located in the heart of Streeterville, steps from the lake, park, Michigan Avenue, Northwestern University's downtown campus, Northwestern Hospital, and the Loop. Unlike other 03-tier units in this service-oriented boutique building, #803 offers approximately 3,400 sqft of living space. Not a detail was missed in the extensive renovation by designer Robyn Shapiro. Designed as an executive residence, highlights include gallery-style lighting, a walnut library, and a luxurious primary bedroom suite with custom limestone bath, professionally designed walk-in closet, extensive casework and built-ins, and an en suite den/office. A gallery-style foyer welcomes you. As you turn the corner into the main living space, you are immediately impressed by the expansive living space and the stunning lake, park, and city views from oversized floor-to-ceiling windows. The formal living area includes a seating group with a gas fireplace, a full-size grand piano, and motorized blinds. The private south-facing balcony and adjacent bay window are ideal spots to enjoy your morning coffee while watching the boats sail by Navy Pier and the people enjoying Lake Shore Park below. At night, the same view is alive with the lights of the city and summer fireworks. Invite your friends over to watch a game or a movie in the custom media room/home theater, designed for entertaining with both a sectional sofa and a built-in counter with bar stools. The adjacent, fully-outfitted wet bar includes two beverage refrigerators. Holidays and dinner parties are easy with the dedicated dining room. Upgrades include grass cloth wallcovering, custom lighting, and a built-in buffet that hides extensive storage. House your wine collection in a full-size, two-temp SubZero wine refrigerator. The all-new kitchen is a cook's dream. Features include heritage-quality book-matched walnut cabinetry by Paoli Woodwork, Nublado limestone countertops, an island with a waterfall design, filtered hot and cold water, and top-quality appliances including a Wolf 6-burner cooktop, double ovens plus a warming drawer, two Bosch dishwashers, a SubZero refrigerator with freezer drawers, and a Wolf exhaust fan that vents out. The primary bedroom suite was reconfigured to maximize its functionality. It includes motorized blinds and drapes, custom built-ins, and an en suite office/den with built-in desk and bookcase with library lights. The spa bath includes a dual vanity and steam shower. The second bedroom is also en suite. The third bedroom was transformed into a milled library with a custom fireplace and pocket door access. The adjacent full bath is currently a powder room however the tub is still intact, hidden behind closet doors. Turning it back to a functional bedroom and full bath would be a simple project. Other features include a powder room off the foyer, custom millwork and hardwood floors throughout, motorized blinds, recessed and pendant lighting, three HVAC zones, and a laundry closet with full-size Samsung side-by-side washer and dryer. The Belvedere was built as a luxury, boutique condominium building in a desirable Streeterville location. Amenities include 24/7 service-oriented door/security staff, an exercise room, dry cleaner, storage, and an attached garage. Two prime deeded garage spaces are available for sale with this unit.
