Exquisitely modern with unparalleled panoramic views of the Chicago skyline and Lake Michigan, Residence 60M1 at 161 E. Chicago Avenue is a masterfully reimagined 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath duplex penthouse within the exclusive Olympia Centre. A 2023 full-scale renovation, this 5,400-square-foot corner home represents the pinnacle of luxury design, craftsmanship, and technology. The main level unfolds into a dramatic two-story great room showcasing 85 feet of contiguous north-facing windows and 45 feet of east-facing windows, bathing the interiors in natural light and framing mesmerizing city and lake vistas. Perfectly tailored for grand entertaining and refined daily living, this open-concept space encompasses a formal living area, a lounge/den with a custom wet bar and full-height Gaggenau wine refrigeration, a chef-inspired kitchen, and an elegant family room-all unified by seven-inch-wide white oak flooring. At the heart of the home, the Arclinea-designed kitchen impresses with fume oak cabinetry, a leathered quartzite island, Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, and an integrated eight-foot dining table for effortless gathering. The primary suite on the main level is a true retreat, featuring a 15' x 14' custom B&B Italia dressing room with a leather-wrapped island and an ensuite spa bath clad in Breccia Capraia marble, complete with a Roman shower, Artelinea glass-top vanity, and a bubble jet soaking tub. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms each offer walk-in closets, designer ensuite baths, and captivating skyline views. Every detail throughout the residence has been thoughtfully curated-marble powder room, dual laundry rooms, motorized shades, Waterworks fixtures, Toto intelligent toilets, custom millwork for storage, integrated surround sound, Savant smart home automation, and Araknis wireless networking. A second-floor entrance adds convenience and privacy. Residents of Olympia Centre enjoy five-star amenities, including 24-hour door staff and concierge, a fitness center, indoor pool and spa, entertainment suite, sun deck, and onsite parking. Perfectly positioned amid Chicago's most celebrated destinations-Michigan Avenue, the historic Water Tower, the John Hancock Building, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the lakefront-and directly adjacent to Neiman Marcus, Residence 60M1 delivers uncompromising luxury and sophistication in the heart of it all.
