About This Home
As of April 2025Introducing a rare opportunity to live in a pre-war, elevator building in Lincoln Park. The vintage building's stunning exterior, with its classic architectural details, sets the tone for what you can expect inside. This boutique building features only two units per floor. The unit boasts character and charm that is hard to find in modern construction, while also being the only unit in the building with both central air and heat. Clearing the building in front of you to the east, you have a beautiful view of Lake Michigan and the sunrise. Stunning details from the moment you step into the grand foyer with custom vaulted ceilings and an open floor plan for hosting your guests. To the right of the grand foyer is the massive living room flooded with natural light, elegant finishes, and a beautiful fireplace. The fireplace surround was repaired so as to be in its original condition. The dining room is spacious and grand equipped with a floating marble serving shelf allowing for dinner parties of any size. The kitchen is fitted with stainless steel appliances, including an oversized built-in Thermador gas cooktop, dishwasher, built-in mini refrigerator, two sinks, massive Sub Zero refrigerator and plentiful cabinetry throughout. The primary bedroom overlooks Lake Michigan and features two east facing windows, a beautiful vaulted ceiling, stunning en-suite marble bathroom with meticulous finishes, and two large walk-in closets. The two other bedrooms also boast gorgeous vaulted ceilings, with one of the bedrooms doubling as an office with a built-in desk and shelving and en-suite bathroom with a north facing window providing you with tons of natural light. Side-by-side washer and dryer perfectly tucked away off of the kitchen with a beautiful granite countertop and functional cabinetry above. This immaculately maintained building also possesses ample amenities, including a delightful lobby entry, lovely sun deck and grill, bike room, mail room, one large storage closet per unit, twice-a-day trash collection, a live-in building engineer for any and all maintenance requests, and available leased parking spaces steps away. There is currently a short waitlist for the leased parking in the building. Located within the Nettelhorst District boundaries, this home is steps from the lake, the park, Sydney Marovitz golf course, tennis courts, grocery stores, restaurants and more. The stunning views of Lake Michigan, vibrant energy of the neighborhood, and luxurious features of this unit and building all come together to create an unparalleled living experience.
