Description
This is one of the largest 1 bed / 1 bath condos at Olympia Centre! The tapered wide base of this building allows floor 26 to have a deeper floor plate when compared with higher "G" tier units. This home is the perfect pied-a-terre for a weekend get-away, busy professional, or university student. Nicely updated throughout by the current owner and barely lived in. Kitchen has an upgraded limestone backsplash, newer Sub-Zero fridge and updated limestone style floors that span into the entry hallway. The bright and large open Living / Dining room has massive protruding windows with deep marble-top window stools and showcase amazing north views up Lake Shore Drive with lake views between dramatic and iconic skyscrapers. Beautifully updated hardwood flooring flows throughout this space and the bedroom. The spacious bedroom easily fits a king size bed and features dual, professionally built-out, walk-in closets. The Carrara marble bathroom has a temperature-controlled jet tub / shower combo and glass sliders. A separate large laundry room has extra space for your kitchen back-stock and coat closet essentials. Custom lighting, roller shades, and freshly painted throughout. There's an additional separate storage room on the same floor as unit! Full amenity building with indoor pool, sauna, 2 fitness rooms, amazing sun deck, party room, dry cleaners, and 24/7 door staff. Rental and hourly guest garage parking on-site. Pet friendly. Located in a spectacular, A+ location with Michigan Ave. at the corner! Prime shopping, restaurants, museums, lake front, and more. Wow!
