Tucked into a tree-lined pocket of the Gold Coast, this garden-level gem at 1350 N State Parkway feels like a slice of Paris in the heart of Chicago. Designed with intention and rich in architectural soul, this 1 bed + 2 full bath residence effortlessly balances vintage elegance with modern ease. Step into a window-clad foyer that feels grand and lux upon entry-anchored by a statement-making shared vestibule and custom security doors for added privacy and polish. Inside, every detail whispers sophistication: crown molding, original walnut floors, and soaring ceilings just under 10 feet high. The gas fireplace with its classic Art Deco mantel anchors the formal dining room, where refinished floors and designer wallpaper frame a space that feels equal parts moody and inviting-ideal for candlelit dinners or quiet nights in. A charming flex space off the dining or second living area provides a perfect work-from-home nook, cozy den, or even overflow sleeping quarters-infused with great natural light and storage. The living room is bookended by stunning floor-to-ceiling built-ins and steps up to the most serene setting: French doors open to a sun-kissed brick-paved terrace* with herringbone pattern, framed by lush ivy and Parisian charm. Here, you'll feel tucked away in your own secret garden, yet you're just steps from the best of city life. The kitchen blends beauty with function: honed granite countertops, deep cherry cabinetry, and a suite of high-performance appliances (Sub-Zero, Miele, Bosch) make cooking feel like an art form. The bedroom is peaceful and refined with custom lighting, double chic closets, more crown molding, and direct access to a luxurious ensuite clad in noir marble, a coffered ceiling, and premium fixtures from Barber Wilsons and Waterworks. Additional perks include surround sound, dimmer light switches throughout, luxury lighting accessories, central AC with humidifier, private storage, convenient laundry in the building, and the timeless charm of an impeccably preserved 1913 boutique building with just 8 units. HOA includes all utilities except electric. Freshly painted! Live steps from Chicago's best: award-winning restaurants (Gibson's, Maple & Ash, LuxBar, and more), world-class shopping on Michigan Ave and Oak Street, the Lakefront Trail, Oak Street Beach, and beautiful, historic blocks filled with energy and charm. A rare pied-a-terre for the design-savvy buyer who values authenticity, architecture, and a central address that truly delivers. Summer in the city never looked so chic. // *DISCLAIMER: although this unit is the only one that has direct access and uses the outside patio space, it is technically a common element.
