The penthouse floor. Residence 707 sits seven stories up at The Alcove. The home has been barely lived in, and it presents as new construction. Step inside to a foyer, and the first thing you notice is the wide-plank hardwood in a warm natural finish, running through a light-filled open floor plan. Instead of the standard coat closet, there is a 9' long walk-in closet fully built out. The kitchen is the heart of the home and it earns it. Italian Copatlife cabinetry in two-tone espresso and white, Viking appliances. Quartz countertops galore, all along the full back wall for prep, and a 14' peninsula facing the living room with bar seating. The layout opens through dining and living space to floor-to-ceiling windows that span the wall, with access to a 15' x 8' balcony equipped with gas and electric for outdoor living, and the downtown skyline on the horizon. The separated bedroom wing features a serene primary suite with two closets, both fully built out - a walk-in plus a second reach-in - and a spa-inspired ensuite bathroom with dual vanity and walk-in shower with bench. Two additional bedrooms have custom closets and share a full hall bath. A powder room off the main living area completes the plan. Storage is where this home separates itself from most condos. The laundry room is a genuine room, tiled and outfitted with side-by-side W/D, custom shelving wall to wall, and pantry space - and it has its own door to the common hallway, so trash, packages, dogs, and wet coats come and go without ever crossing the foyer. Every closet in the home has been fully built out, and a storage unit in the common area is included. Additional highlights include motorized shades throughout, heated garage parking, smart home capabilities, and 'Door' keyless entry. Building amenities include a turfed dog run off the courtyard, Luxer One package management, and an 8th-floor common rooftop deck with panoramic skyline views, firepit, and grill. The Alcove's boutique all-brick elevator building offers an unmatched location: immediate access to the Blue Line, 90/94, Target, acclaimed restaurants like Tortello, Antique Taco, and Komorebi, plus boutique shopping and cafes, all while remaining remarkably quiet in its gated courtyard setting. The penthouse floor, and Wicker Park's most unmatched location, this home offers a lifestyle that feels effortlessly elevated where the energy of the city meets the tranquility of your own private retreat.

Wicker Park, located between the Kennedy Expressway and Humboldt Park, is a historic and creative Chicago neighborhood with a classic boulevard park and a dense strip of independent storefronts. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Milwaukee Avenue–North Avenue–Damen Avenue six-corner intersection, where record shops, indie boutiques, cocktail bars, and late-night bites cluster under the glow of marquee signs. The Double Door, The Violet Hour, and Myopic Books serve as cultural pillars with a distinctly local point of view. Brick two-flats and greystone walk-ups line leafy side streets, while converted loft buildings add an industrial edge. The 606’s elevated trail stitches the area to nearby districts, and Wicker Park’s namesake green space frames weekend routines with paths, benches, and a fieldhouse.
