About this home
If you've been searching for a genuine brick & timber loft - not a conversion, not an imitation - your search ends here. Think wide open spaces, versatile living ! Welcome to one of only 14 residences in the Meter Building, one of Chicago's most special loft buildings, perfectly situated where East Village meets South Wicker Park. Built in 1907, the Meter Building at 835 N. Wood Street has a story as distinctive as its architecture. This four-story brick-and-timber structure originally served as a factory and manufacturing plant where many of Chicago's iconic parking meters were produced - a piece of the city's industrial heritage hiding in plain sight. Thoughtfully converted into 14 loft-style residences, the building retains everything that made it remarkable: the heavy timber framing, the exposed brick, the generous proportions, and the industrial bones that simply cannot be replicated in new construction. This spectacular two-floor corner unit delivers over 2,800 square feet of that authentic character, flooded with natural light from approximately 70 linear feet of windows spanning the north and east sides of the building. Light isn't an amenity here - it's an experience. The lower level is a single, sweeping, nearly undivided space with soaring timbered ceilings, exposed brick walls, and polished concrete floors. A thoughtfully designed bedroom area (no walls) features a walk-in closet crafted from reclaimed lumber. There's a full bath and a dedicated laundry room, plus generous storage tucked below. Plenty of room remains to add a second bedroom and still have abundant space left over for a family room, studio, or whatever your life requires. Best of all, this level has its own private entrance - making it an exceptional option for a home office, creative studio, or client-facing workspace. A custom staircase with steel railings and reclaimed lumber treads connects the two floors in style. Upstairs, the second level continues the drama: hardwood floors, windows running the full length of two exterior walls, and an open, light-drenched living and dining room that flows into the kitchen and a possible dedicated office space. A second bedroom area and full bath complete this level. The price includes a parking space in the building's attached bow truss garage - an architectural gem in its own right. An industrial-style elevator serves the building and carries you up to a shared rooftop deck where sweeping skyline views await. Step outside and you're a short walk from four neighborhood playgrounds, three community gardens, and the CTA el. The cultural richness of East Village, Ukrainian Village, Wicker Park, and Bucktown is at your doorstep - world-class dining, independent shops, live music, farmers markets, and one of Chicago's most vibrant street scenes. A building with this much history, this much character, and this much space doesn't come along often. When it does, it doesn't last....
