2054 W Grand Avenue Chicago IL 60612 MLS #MRD12505696

Welcome to 2054-2058 W Grand Ave in the heart of Chicago’s vibrant West Town neighborhood. This exceptional live / work space was designed by renowned Chicago architects UrbanLab and has been featured in Dwell magazine. The property comprises 3 prime Chicago lots, with the main building being constructed of prefabricated concrete wall panels. The prefab concrete offers structure and insulation while providing a simple, clean and sustainable design. Built in 2013 as an FDA-approved food production facility with a ground floor storefront and restaurant for street visibility and a large area with 24′ ceiling height for processing and warehousing. The first floor has ample floor drains and polished concrete floors, providing endless possibilities for food and beverage production, a luxurious garage, furniture design or art fabrication / display (to suggest a few ideas). It also features 3 different commercial kitchen prep spaces with multiple exhaust hoods, ADA required bathrooms, a staff / break room, 2 mechanical rooms and a staging area with overhead doors for shipping & receiving. The building design does allow for all of the rooms to be cleared, leaving only 2 centrally located columns, should that be of interest to the next occupant. The second floor has an office space with a conference room and two private offices as well as a few mechanical rooms and additional warehousing / processing space, which can be accessed through a safety gate from the first floor with a forklift. The top floor is a gorgeous 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom apartment with floor to ceiling windows, and a massive roof deck with unobstructed views of the Chicago skyline. Expertly appointed with high end appliances like a Wolf range, Bosch refrigerator and dishwasher, Duravit sinks and toilets and Axor fixtures. The primary bathroom also features a steam shower and an oversized bathtub set in a quartz and tile surround. There’s a formal living room, dining room / flex space and a private roofdeck, which is accessible from all of the main spaces in the home. Each level of the building is accessible via a keyed elevator and 2 stairwells. The two adjacent properties to the east (2050 and 2048 W Grand Ave) include a simple frame two unit dwelling and a vacant lot that’s currently used as an urban garden. These can be included as part of the package for an additional $1,000,000.00. These parcels protect your view but could be repurposed to expand the footprint of the existing commercial or residential space. There’s parking here for over 6 cars, a commercial elevator, and many more thoughtful details that make this an exceptional property to both work and live.
