Live and Play Chicago - Fall/Winter 2009

2250 W. Ohio, Ukrainian Village
$995,000

This incredible tri-level penthouse ranks among the coolest cribs in the city! It features classic loft elements: exposed brick walls, timber and beam ceilings, and urban views that include the nearby golden-domed Ukrainian Catholic Cathedrals.

The main living space is on the building’s third floor and was designed for living, dining, and cooking. There is a guest bath and a new deck on this level as well. Three bedrooms, two full baths and a home office are located on the second floor directly below. The benefit of this design is that you don’t have to worry about having a noisy upstairs neighbor. The penthouse level includes a family room, a niche ideal for office or guest bed, and a full bath. It also provides access to your own roof deck and private, roof-top resistance pool. The sparkle of unobstructed city skyline views at night is completely enthralling – you will look forward to summer entertaining on this deck. The wet bar in the adjacent family room is an enhancement.

Other significant features include a brand new (never used) white Poliform kitchen, new walnut hardwood floors, and sophisticated stone and slate baths. The price includes garage parking for three cars (a single and a tandem space).

ABOUT:

Occupying a 32-block
area northwest of down-
town, Ukrainian Village is
a cohesive residential neighbor-
hood comprised of Victorian-style
housing, workers cottages and tidy
red brick two- and three-flats. The
vintage buildings display the high-
quality workmanship and detail-
ing that early Ukrainian im-
migrants cherished. Now home
to a more diverse popula-
tion, the original spirit
remains.
