Now priced to be the best high-floor 2 Bed, 1 Bath Value in James House-And It Shows. Located on the 40th floor with unobstructed skyline and sunset views, this fully remodeled condo offers more than just stunning aesthetics-it delivers thoughtful upgrades rarely found at this price point. Beyond the sleek interior transformation, the seller has added UV film to the windows and high-end motorized blinds throughout, maximizing both energy efficiency and everyday comfort. Penthouse vibes meet showroom style in this reimagined 2-bedroom, 1-bath home in the iconic James House, part of amenity-rich Sandburg Village. Wide-plank, white oak engineered hardwood flooring flows seamlessly through the open-concept layout, leading to a west-facing balcony that feels like a private skybox for every golden hour. The chef's kitchen boasts quartz countertops, matte black hardware, custom white cabinetry, island seating, and a full suite of smart stainless appliances. A walk-in pantry adds functional luxury, while in-unit laundry, recessed lighting, and WiFi-capable switches bring next-level convenience. The oversized primary bedroom features a professionally organized closet, recessed lighting, and tranquil motorized room-darkening shades-perfect for sleep or a peaceful work-from-home setup. The spa-like bathroom dazzles with boutique finishes: designer tile, matte black fixtures, and a frameless walk-in shower with full-body spray. The versatile second bedroom offers room for guests, a home office, or creative studio. James House residents enjoy 24-hour door staff, valet garage parking ($190/month), a fitness center, tennis courts, two pools, a penthouse party room, and a rooftop deck with jaw-dropping lake and skyline views. Located just steps from North Avenue Beach, Lincoln Park, Old Town, and the Gold Coast-with CTA lines within easy reach-this isn't just a home. It's a lifestyle move. Turnkey. Elevated. Irresistible.
