About this home

Condo · Built 2004

Wake up to stunning morning light and sweeping Evanston views from your private balcony. At 1,269 square feet, this well-proportioned unit offers generous living and dining space with wood floors, and floor-to-ceiling windows that bring the outdoors in at every turn. The split two-bedroom, two-bathroom layout provides privacy and flexibility — ideal for working from home or hosting guests. Both bedrooms benefit from the eastern exposure, filling the unit with natural light from the moment the sun rises over Lake Michigan. Optima Horizons delivers the full downtown Evanston lifestyle: door staff, indoor pool, hot tub, and fitness center. Steps to the Davis Street Metra and CTA Purple Line, and a short walk to Northwestern University, restaurants, shops, and the lakefront. Sale includes two garage parking spaces and a storage locker.
