Description
An architectural masterpiece of the 1920's presents a one of a kind penthouse. This is the Park Gables, one of Chicago's most acclaimed residential buildings of the pre-war years. This residence is known as the steeple in the sky for it's light filled living room with towering ceiling flanked by solid oak beams, and expansive views into the idyllic park where you can enjoy the changing beauty of all four seasons. The kitchen has been updated with a tasteful soapstone counter, modern stainless appliances including a built-in oven & drop-in cooktop as well as classic oak cabinetry. The dining room was built to entertain with ample space & light. The bedrooms are large enough to make a king bed disappear. The bathroom highlights stunning original tilework. And there is abundant closet space. Curved archways, original moldings, period light fixtures & hardwood floors all bring you back to a different era. See floor plan for the true scope of this rare find. This isn't merely an apartment. It is essentially a resort in the city, facing the park district gem of Indian Boundary Park with no road between the residences and the park, a true rarity in Chicago. Nestled in the lower levels you'll find the art deco treasure Gables Pool, heated and never busy. There is also a fully equipped recreation room with ping pong, billiards, separate free weight room, authentic wooden Swedish stall bars, various exercise machines and an original handball court, as well as separate locker rooms.
