Description

This professionally designed and expansive 2 bed/2 bath condo in the sky has been rehabbed to perfection to fit the needs of the most discerning buyer. A beautifully wallpapered foyer leads you into the enormous, open living room with floor to ceiling east face windows and double sliding doors leading out to the 42 foot wide covered terrace. Warm, yet light hardwood floors and custom media built-ins make this living room the perfect place to relax OR entertain. Indeed, this unit has served as the venue for many a gathering, and why not, considering that the award for the longest balcony on North Lake Shore Dr. is exclusive to the 1212 N Lake Shore B tier! The lucky owners in this tier can truly say that they have the best seats in the house to the Air & Water Show, the fireworks at Navy Pier, parades, concerts at North Avenue & Oak Street Beach, and all the happenings on the waters of Lake Michigan just outside the front door. This unobstructed view of the lake, beaches, and skyline is visible from every room, including both bedrooms, which also have floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors that lead out to the terrace. Sellers also elected to update all windows and doors leading to the terrace with top of the line, sound-proof, energy efficient windows/doors. Custom high-end built-ins in the primary suite, the guest bedroom, and the full formal dining room/den were thoughtfully added to maximize storage space - something that there can never be enough of in the city! The primary bathroom was taken down to the studs in 2019, with a retooled floor plan including a custom walk in shower, a double vanity, new floors, ceilings, light fixtures, and all new plumbing.

The secondary bathroom which is accessible from both the living room and the second bedroom was just completely refreshed with updated plumbing, a new vanity and new fixtures this summer. Finally, the kitchen was also completely redone this summer with brand new quartz counters, a cabinet refresh, a new, more open floor plan, & new fixtures and finishes. There is absolutely nothing left to do to this home other than move right in and enjoy the views of the skyline, Navy Pier, and Chicagos most beautiful beaches. This unit comes with the option to have 2+ valet parking spaces that are a cost of $245 per month. Unit owners may opt to use one space, both, or neither. A full service building,1212 N Lake Shore Drive has 24 hour door staff, a receiving room for packages, a fully staffed valet garage that offers car washes for a nominal fee, a stunning rooftop sundeck with panoramic city and lake views, a party room, a gym, and an indoor pool and sauna.
