Best Boutique Condo Buildings in River North

While many River North condo buyers prefer the glitz and glamour of the luxury high-rise lifestyle, others prefer more of a low-key setting with less traffic and fewer neighbors.  And with the neighborhood having all kinds of options and opportunities that match this particular lifestyle preference, we thought we'd highlight just some of the best boutique condo buildings River North has to offer. 

56 W. Huron St. 
For the advantage of new construction filled with an array of luxury finishes and top amenities, 56 W. Huron offers a great option for those in search of a boutique condo building in the River North neighborhood. You’ll find such upscale additions as a mix of wide oak flooring and marble, as well as custom European cabinetry, quartz countertops, and the advantage of appliances from some of the top makers. As for amenities, spend your free time enjoying a fitness and yoga center, 24-hour concierge service, and even time on the rooftop sky deck, plus you’ll also find a fenced-in dog run, a fire pit, an outdoor lounge, and more at 366 W Superior. 

744 N. Clark
What 744 N Clark doesn’t offer in terms of amenities, it certainly makes up for with some of its private inclusions, from stainless steel appliances to fireplaces, crown molding to private balconies. Not only does this boutique building offer the advantage of deeded garage parking, but it’s also close to public transportation and not far from Michigan Avenue, giving you easy access to what you need and want in the city from one exceptional location. The building just happens to only house 40 condos, which makes it a great option if you’re searching for a smaller property, but don’t want to give up on the convenience of a desirable address.

The Ronsley
For a mix of the old and the new, The Ronsley checks off all the boxes in River North, from its outdoor terraces to its stylish cabinetry, its high-end appliances to its upscale quartz countertops. Take advantage of private elevator access directly into your own home, or simply enjoy using one of the two private terraces that come with the units of The Ronsley. Penthouse units in the building also offer floor-to-ceiling windows and make it feel more like you’re living in a single-family home than a condo building in the city.

The Contemporaine
The award-winning Contemporaine building easily stands out from the rest with its glass exterior and contemporary design points, including the uniqueness of up to 20-foot atriums in some of the homes, making these condos feel much larger than even their square footage implies. This luxury high-rise sits at 201 W Grand Avenue and only has around two dozen or so units for buyers to choose from, meaning this building is not only ultra-exclusive but also luxurious. 

400 W. Huron 
If you’re looking for newer construction in River North, you’ll want to take another look at 400 W Huron, as this building offers only around two dozen units with large floorplans and ample amenities. The boutique building has a dog run, wine storage, a fitness center, and even the convenience of private garages, plus each floorplan is large, with some units containing nearly 5,000 square feet of living space.
