A fully furnished, full-floor penthouse perched on the 76th floor of the St. Regis Chicago has landed on the market with an asking price of $11.5 million. The residence clocks in at roughly 5,890 square feet, with four bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, and it is wrapped in 360-degree views of Lake Michigan and the downtown skyline. Terraces are positioned so you can catch both sunrise and sunset, and the unit is marketed as a turnkey, design-forward home with private elevator entry, the kind of place where guests suddenly discover they are “in the neighborhood” a lot more often.
What’s for sale
The listing highlights a long list of high-end finishes, including 11-foot-4 ceilings, floor-to-ceiling glass, a chef’s kitchen with Gaggenau appliances, and a parlor framed by steel-glass partitions, according to Compass. The same listing shows two garage spaces, annual property taxes of about $162,063, and monthly condo assessments of roughly $8,876. The offering is handled by Rafael Murillo of Compass and is presented as a fully furnished, private-entry, full-floor penthouse.
How it hit the market
Before the condo officially surfaced in wider listing feeds, it was teased in local coverage as a “before it hits the market” item that flagged the $11.5 million asking price and its sky-high placement in the tower, as reported by Crain's Chicago Business. That early item, written by Dennis Rodkin and paired with photos credited to B. R. Lillie, helped push what started as a quieter offering into citywide real estate chatter among luxury brokers.
Owners and price history
Reporting by The Real Deal identifies the sellers as Alessandra and Johannes Pinto van Zuydam, who are linked to cookware maker Le Creuset. They bought the unit in 2024 for about $8.3 million and then spent roughly a year renovating and furnishing it. That earlier purchase price makes the current $11.5 million ask roughly a 39 percent markup from the last recorded sale, according to The Real Deal. The outlet also notes that the St. Regis has produced some of Chicago’s priciest recent condo transactions, including a duplex that sold for about $20.6 million in 2022, which set a recent high-water mark for downtown luxury.
Buyer math and amenities
The listing on Redfin puts the residence at about 5,890 square feet, with a price-per-square-foot around $1,952. The building’s amenities include indoor and outdoor pools, a spa, private dining, and a residents’ amenity level. Between the steep property taxes, monthly assessments, and the eight-figure price tag, the carrying costs are clearly aimed at a narrow pool of affluent, design-conscious buyers, many of them seasonal or out-of-state. “For many buyers, especially those relocating or maintaining multiple residences, time is the ultimate luxury,” listing agent Rafael Murillo told The Real Deal, framing the fully furnished setup as part of the appeal.
