Hands down, the most exquisite residence at the iconic Carlyle, widely known for its exemplary service and facilities. With spectacular panoramic protected views of Lake Michigan, Oak Street Beach, and the city from a high floor in the building's prime tier, 25D is the result of a recent $1 million masterful gut renovation - every hinge, fixture, and surface reflects an attention to detail rarely seen in even the finest new construction. The floorplan is ideal for grand entertaining and intimate everyday living. A formal entry opens to a glorious living/dining room with enough room for a number of seatings.
