Stop scrolling. This is the penthouse buyers wait years to find. Brand-new 2025 construction in a boutique elevator building, this extra-wide 3-bedroom, 2-bath home delivers something almost impossible to find in Pilsen: breathtaking downtown skyline views, an elevator that takes you all the way to your private rooftop deck, and a level of space and design that feels more like a single-family home than a condo. Natural light pours through oversized windows, illuminating the wide-open living space, rich hardwood floors, and seamless flow to a spacious balcony-perfect for morning coffee or sunset cocktails with the skyline as your backdrop. The designer kitchen is built for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring a large island, custom cabinetry with pantry storage, Samsung stainless steel appliances, and a vented exterior hood. The primary suite is a true retreat with a generous walk-in closet and a spa-inspired bath showcasing a dual vanity, oversized shower with rain head and body sprays, and stylish barn doors. Two additional bedrooms offer plenty of flexibility for guests, family, or work-from-home needs, while the oversized laundry room provides the kind of storage every homeowner wishes they had. Need even more space? The enormous private storage room in the basement is large enough to become your home gym, office, hobby room, or all three.
