Description

Presenting a special and unique opportunity to own in the historical landmark building, The Donahue, located in the heart of Printers Row. Originally built in 1883, the Donahue building was the first factory building in Chicago to be converted to residential lofts in 1979. Inside the building, you will experience the wonder and charm of the original elevator operated via a pulley system to get to the 9th floor. Stepping into this true concrete loft, you will be greeted by a sprawling 40 wide open-concept floor plan with soaring ceilings, fireplace seating area, and built-in bookcases, a nod to the printer press factory this once was. As you explore, you will find 3 bedrooms and 2 baths with no expense spared in the many upgrades throughout. The kitchen has a timeless and elegant feel featuring high-end appliances, a waterfall edge island, and beautiful two-toned cabinetry which leads to the very rare and expansive outdoor space, one in only 3 in the building.

Entertain in style with a generous-sized smoke/grill outdoor kitchen set-up while looking at views of the Willis Tower, John Hancock Building, and more. The primary bedroom is the epitome of luxury and relaxation complete with an impressive walk-in closet. The equally impressive primary bathroom boasts a huge custom shower, marble flooring, and double sinks, flooded with natural light. Located in a special area in the heart of downtown Chicago, with the weekend farmers market in the park just across the street. Steps from many restaurants, cafes, bookstores, and more right out our front door. Amazing walkability and public transportation scores. If you are looking for historical charm and a one-of-a-kind unit, this is not to be missed.
