Magnificent unit in chic boutique building on Belmont Harbor. Gilded, groin-vaulted entryway leads into gorgeous barrel-vaulted hallway, and opens onto impressive and light-filled living room beyond. The centerpiece of the living room is a stately, impeccably restored limestone fireplace, flanked by two walls of large, wood-framed, lead-like windows that fill the room with natural light. A geometric patterned tracery ceiling, built-in bookcases, and restored wood paneling create a sophisticated feel in this splendid and intimate entertaining space, the only one in the building that features original limestone block floor. The wood-burning fireplace adds warmth and comfort. Adjacent to the living area is an elegant, mirrored dry bar--perfect for ease of entertaining. The dining room affords space to host elegant dinner parties, with restored wood parquet floors, panel-moulding on the walls and crown moulding at the ceiling. The dining room flows into the kitchen beyond. The kitchen boasts professional-grade stainless steel GE Monogram appliances, quartz countertops, rich wood cabinetry, and white subway tile backsplashes. Both bathrooms have been recently renovated with of-the-moment fixtures and finishes that are truly an homage to the old-world style while being functional and modern. Two large bedrooms and a smaller bedroom/den/office afford plenty of space to spread out, with each featuring true, red oak, hardwood flooring. Throughout, the ceiling heights, vintage features, expansive windows and the small details, like vintage door hardware and knobs, provide an air of sophistication that recalls the storied past of this impressive Beaux Arts building on Lake Shore Drive. The common rooftop deck was recently completed and features pergola, Gehry outdoor tables, seating and dining areas, grills and beautiful plantings--the perfect place to relax and dine with the sunset as a stunning back drop for this grand exterior rooftop deck. This intimate boutique building is impeccably maintained, with an on-site, live-in engineer. A block away from cafes and restaurants, and across the street from the gorgeous walking and biking paths of the lake front.
