One of a kind home at the historic Metropolis Building! Originally planned as a 2 bed/2 bath, this loft was purchased from the developer and utilized as an artist's studio, yet holds all the functionality of a residence! The high lofted ceilings and open concept living provide fantastic flow you wouldn't otherwise have. The large nook off the foyer can easily be turned into a proper bedroom thanks to the newly added closet and ample space for various configurations. Great living/dining/kitchen space can be utilized however you please with rarely used appliances and excellent storage. Off the dining room is another new closet and half bathroom which can be turned into a full bath. Brand new washer/dryer and paint throughout. Full amenity building with 24 hour door staff, fitness center, party room, outdoor terrace, and dog run. Garage parking available for purchase or rent and public transportation is abundant. Located in the heart of the theatre district, walkable to The Art Institute, Millennium Park, and the Riverwalk! Come see your new home in Chicago's Loop! Agent is related to the seller's estate.
