About this home
Welcome to the Chicago Lifestyle, a Lincoln Park story. Morning light spills across wide plank floors. The skyline glints in the distance. Somewhere below, the lakefront stirs to life. This is how a day begins in Unit 715 of Commonwealth Plaza, the iconic Mies van der Rohe designed twin tower at the edge of Lincoln Park. This is a southwest corner residence in the coveted 15 tier, a stack that rarely comes to market. Two walls of glass open to unobstructed views of the Chicago skyline, the historic Elks National Memorial dome, and the still waters of North Pond. While neighboring residences face other buildings, this one faces the city itself. A long, gallery style foyer welcomes you home, drawing the eye toward the light. Wide plank hardwood floors run throughout, warm and grounding underfoot. The living and dining space stretches wide and generous, framed by south and west facing windows that fill the home with sun from sunrise to dusk. There is room here for a true dining table, a full sectional, a reading chair pulled close to the glass, and still space to breathe. Track lighting and a soft pendant set the mood as the evening rolls in. A 2024 renovation is quiet and confident in every detail. The European style kitchen is designed for both stillness and gathering, with custom flat panel cabinetry, quartz countertops, brushed brass fixtures, and integrated appliances tucked seamlessly into the design. A live edge wood accent adds a quiet note of warmth against the clean lines. The bathroom feels lifted from a boutique hotel, finished floor to ceiling in Calacatta marble like tiles with a glass walk in shower, built in niches, brass detailing, and a floating vanity. The bedroom is hushed and bright, framed by treetops, with generous closet space and a calm, restorative feel that makes it a true retreat at the end of the day. Thoughtful storage runs throughout, and the entire home lives larger than its footprint suggests. Three convector units (the building's zoned heating and cooling system) were recently replaced, a $24,000 upgrade. A dedicated storage cage is included. Commonwealth Plaza is more than an address. It is a piece of Chicago architectural history, a full service elevator building cared for by a professional management team for decades. Residents enjoy 24 hour door staff, a fitness center, pool, rooftop deck, sun deck, party room, on site laundry, receiving room, community herb garden and grill area, dry cleaning service, and a private playground. The HOA includes heat, gas, air conditioning, water, cable, internet, and trash, a rare inclusion that quietly removes line items from your life. Rental parking is available in the building with no waitlist. Step outside and Lincoln Park unfolds. The lakefront trail is a four minute walk. The Lincoln Park Zoo, Conservatory, North Pond Nature Sanctuary, and a tucked away golf course and tennis courts are all within minutes. Weekends mean strolls along the water, picnics in the park, dinners at Mon Ami Gabi for French bistro classics, tasting menus at ESME, or quieter evenings at Anatolia. Hero Coffee, one block north, is the kind of small, well loved spot where you start every Saturday. Trader Joe's is a short walk down Diversey, Mariano's sits on Broadway, and Go Grocer is right across the street. The 151 bus runs down Lake Shore Drive straight into the Loop, the Diversey Brown and Purple Line stop is a few blocks west, and LSD is moments away by car. Iconic. Historic. Culturally significant. This is a home that asks you to slow down, look out, and stay awhile....
