This exceptional 1 bed + den, 2 bath condo located in a secure, gated building in walkable Lincoln Park truly checks every box-and then creates new boxes you didn't know you needed! Spanning four thoughtfully designed levels, this one-of-a-kind home offers a rare and highly functional floor plan you simply won't find anywhere else. Step inside to discover stunning timber loft vibes complemented by vaulted ceilings, exposed brick, skylights, and an abundance of windows that flood the space with natural light. With no upstairs neighbors, you get ALL the ambiance WITHOUT the noise. You'll find your ultimate retreat up the spiral staircase into the primary bedroom suite that spans the entire top floor of the unit. Finally a Chicago bedroom that makes a king-sized bed look small-and don't get me started on that closet space! Your equally huge *and private* rooftop deck is conveniently accessible through a sliding glass door making relaxing and entertaining effortless in a space that is easy to show off. The fully remodeled ensuite bathroom, equipped with in-unit laundry ~and a shower skylight~, is the best cherry on top. This is only further elevated by the convenient second full bathroom on the main level, unequivocally granting you the private bathroom you deserve. All four levels flow seamlessly, offering the best of both worlds: a perfect space for hosting and simultaneously carving out your own private areas. Down the spiral staircase, you enter the versatile den, which provides the perfect WFH setup or additional living space, all while conveniently overlooking the living room on the main level just half a floor down. This main level stretches the length of the unit creating a welcoming and spacious landing complete with a coat closet, entry table, and room to unload before merging into the living room which is fit to fit a suburban-sized couch. Another half floor down lands you on the first (and final) floor of the unit: The kitchen along with a designated dining area. If you can't handle the heat, you'll need to stay out of this kitchen, because this level features tile floors with radiant heat! The kitchen is further completed with granite countertops, a dual undermount sink, and a stainless steel appliance package that includes a dishwasher and a five-burner gas stove with griddle pan. Storage is never an issue with the enormous crawlspace off the dining area *see floorplan,* while the attached heated garage parking ensures year-round comfort. Stylish, spacious, and truly unique, this Lincoln Park gem offers the perfect combination of character, functionality, and modern living. Elevate what you call home!

RT-4
Residential Two-Flat, Townhouse and Multi-Unit District
The primary purpose of the RT districts is to accommodate detached houses, two-flats, townhouses and low-density, multi-unit residential buildings at a density and building scale that is compatible with RS districts. The districts are intended to be applied in areas characterized by a mix of housing types. The districts are also intended to provide a gradual transition between RS districts and higher density RM districts. The RT districts are differentiated primarily on the basis of allowed density (minimum lot area per unit) and floor area ratios.
