Featuring 10-foot ceilings and a 60-foot wall of skyline-facing windows, this dramatic top-floor condo in Chicago’s Gold Coast neighborhood is one swanky perch. Situated atop the Booth Hansen-designed tower at 30 W. Oak Street, the three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bathroom unit sports a designer chef’s kitchen, custom built-ins, a large covered balcony, and an even larger rooftop terrace with a glassed-in solarium. Three garage parking spaces are also included.

The high-end, 24th floor home hit the market this morning seeking a whopping $5,250,000—or more than $1,400 per square foot. In addition to the stratospheric asking price, maintaining this property is also a very expensive affair. HOA fees run $2,826 per month and, according to records, the owner was on the hook for over $52,000 in taxes in the year 2015.
