Luxury Condos For Sale in Chicago






What Features Are Available In Luxury Condos?




When you think of luxury condo finishes, probably the first things that come to mind are hardwood floors and stainless steel kitchen appliances. Those two features are a standard in most luxury condos, but buyers now have a much broader choice of finishes from which to chose when purchasing a pre-construction Chicago condo or even remodeling an existing home. It of course depends upon the real estate developer marketing the condos, but now days anything from imported Italian marble in master baths to catering from personal chefs is possible.



Real hardwood flooring, not engineered, is the hallmark and the choices can range from traditional wide plank oak to Brazilian or teak hardwoods to more eco-friendly bamboo. Most luxury condos have hardwood running in the common living areas and a choice of wall-to-wall carpeting in the bedrooms. As far as the kitchen and baths, 12" marble tile is what most buyers prefer. Click here to find more information about Chicago Luxury Condos For Sale.



Kitchens also come with a variety of choices available, and are often European style. Energy Star rated efficient GE, Wolfe, Sub-Zero or Bosch appliances are usually part of the gourmet kitchen package, along with quartz or granite countertops with 4" backsplash in granite or even glass mosaic tile. Double bowl stainless steel under mount sinks and 42" upper plus 36" lower custom made or Italian wood cabinets in cherry, maple or oak are sometimes offered. Some kitchens even boast a butler's pantry for storage. An island or breakfast nook is often part of the design, and in some developments a balcony is located directly off the kitchen.



Most luxury condos have at least one balcony or terrace, with many having two. They can offer some stunning views of the lake or city skyline. These can be located off the master bedroom, living room or kitchen as was mentioned. Penthouse units often have the largest balconies available, with some developments offering exclusive landscaped rooftop space to penthouse owners.



Ceiling heights of at least 9' to 10' are standard, with many luxury condos designed with ceiling heights up to 20'. Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows with low-e glass are also standard luxury finishes. Solid wood entry doors with brass knobs, designer track or pendant lighting and crown molding are a few more luxury details.



Baths can be lavish, with a separate shower encased in a glass surround with frameless doors, marble tile and 6' soaking tubs or Jacuzzi with Moen and Toto fixtures. His and her vanities, recessed medicine cabinets, full length mirrors with theatrical lighting and linen closets with vinyl clad shelving can also be built in.



A fireplace in the living room is another luxury finish, with custom mantle and stone hearth in the buyer's choice of materials sometimes offered. Electronic perks such as pre-wiring for high speed Internet and phones, digital television and cable, Ipod docking, surround sound and touch pad controls for heating, cooling and security are becoming standard. Computer nooks are also often built into what might have previously been unused hall space. And walk-in closets in the bedrooms plus a laundry room with full size washer and dryer are normally included.



In the planned Chicago Spire, luxury features advertised include personal elevators that will take residents directly to their condo floor. At Trump Tower, personal concierge service is available as well as maid service and catering brought to your suite. Trump also offers residents valet and laundry service along with spa treatments. A few luxury towers even offer personal wine storage or humidors. Aqua at Lakeshore East has a full amenities roster along with an 80,000 square foot outdoor deck for its residents. And secure indoor heated parking, fully equipped fitness centers, business centers, party rooms, movie rooms plus a 24 hour doorman are also expected luxury features.



Unless you purchase a luxury condo that is ready for delivery, remember it will take a bit more time to customize your condo when opting for a pre-construction unit. But once you move in, the wait will be worth it. When it comes to luxury features offered with condos, the sky really can be the limit in some cases. Depending on your budget and what the developer is willing to do, you can have the luxury condo of your dreams, only this time in real life.
