Experience views of the lake and city from this top floor - penthouse unit in Chicago's Aqua Tower. Award-winning architect Jeanne Gang designed this building's unique, slow rippling balconies, giving the skyscraper a sculptural quality. This residence offers a terrace that spans 91 feet in length with access from the living spaces and all four bedrooms. Recently updated with new weather-proofed flooring, this serene outdoor space is perfect for entertaining, relaxation, and meditation. Abundant natural light flows from floor-to-ceiling windows in every room. 14 ft ceilings and vast wall space create the ideal space to display an art collection. Highlights include Lutron motorized shades, crown molding, millwork, and hardwood floors throughout the home. The living space flows together flawlessly: a living room with fireplace, a dining area large enough to accommodate both large gatherings as well as intimate gatherings. Tastefully appointed, the kitchen offers Calacatta Gold marble counters, custom cabinetry, Subzero, Wolf, and Miele appliances, and an island with breakfast bar. The current owner created an elegant, temperature-controlled wine cellar in an area once dedicated to storage. A dramatic, newly renovated powder room features new wood paneled walls and a floating sink atop lit Onyx counter. The graciously sized primary suite features a grand walk-in closet outfitted by Closet Works and a luxurious ensuite bath with custom cabinetry in a cocoa finish, Calacatta Gold countertops, mosaic marble shower, and Airbath Jacuzzi tub. The spacious second and third bedrooms have generous closets and stunning views; two full baths are located across the hall. The fourth bedroom is currently configured as a den with custom built-ins. Residents enjoy Aqua's full amenities: indoor and outdoor swimming pools, hot tub, sundeck, fitness center, sauna, steam, indoor basketball court, outdoor running track, media/theatre room, billiards room, business center, restaurants and direct access to the city via the Chicago pedway.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
