1622 W Julian Street , Unit 2 Chicago, IL 60622

Perched above one of Chicago's most vibrant neighborhoods, this Wicker Park penthouse delivers a rare combination: dramatic, light-filled interiors and a showstopping rooftop that redefines outdoor living in the city. Currently configured as a two-bedroom, the layout offers a natural opportunity to finish out a third bedroom-giving the next owner the flexibility to grow into the space. The open-concept main level sets the tone immediately-soaring ceilings, a skylight, hardwood floors throughout, and oversized windows that bathe every corner in natural light. The gas fireplace anchors the living room, which features a striking custom built-in feature wall, while thoughtful storage built into the dining room beneath an expansive window keeps the space both beautiful and functional. The kitchen was fully updated in 2024 and designed without compromise: quartz countertops, a large island, beverage cooler, stainless steel appliances, and an abundance of cabinetry make it as practical for everyday cooking as it is for hosting. An additional outdoor space off the kitchen-already equipped with water and gas lines-extends your options further. The bathrooms are spa-caliber, with the primary bath featuring heated floors for a daily retreat experience. The entire home received a complete interior repaint in 2025, a full LED lighting upgrade with dimmers, a refreshed intercom system, Hunter Douglas window treatments, and updated appliances-every detail has been considered. An interior staircase rises to the crown jewel: a full-length private rooftop deck completed in 2025. Finished with Trex composite decking for durability and heat resistance, it's outfitted with a built-in grill, outdoor kitchen, ambient lighting, seating, and planter boxes-all framed by open city views. This is a space designed to be lived in, not just admired. Additional updates include a new HVAC system (2021), in-unit washer/dryer (2021), and a detached garage with an EV charger. The building itself has been meticulously maintained with exterior water sealing, refreshed walkways, and a full roof tear-off and replacement in 2025. Turnkey, thoughtfully updated, and genuinely one-of-a-kind-this is the Wicker Park penthouse that rarely comes to market.
